Aluminum and Magnesium Alloys

The specifications in this volume define the necessary qualities of aluminum, aluminum alloys, and aluminum-covered steel, e.g., bars, rods, wire, shapes, castings, forgings, fasteners, pipes, tubes, sheet, plates, foil, and cable. Other standards fix the property requirements for magnesium-ingot and magnesium-alloy castings, sheet, forgings, anodes, bars, rods, and shapes; and tests that measure indentation hardness, shear testing, tension testing, and ultrasonic inspection. Reprints of ANSI standards on aluminum are also included.
