Description / Abstract:
(Footnote *)
This specification covers aluminum-alloy high-strength castings
designated as shown in Table 1.
Castings covered by this specification are intended for use in
airframe, missile, and other
critical applications where high strength, ductility, and sound
castings are required.
For acceptance criteria for inclusion of new aluminum and aluminum
alloys and their properties in
this specification, see Annex A1 and Annex A2.
The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be
regarded separately as standard.
Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated
in each system are not exact
equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the
other. Combining values from
the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regular
limitations prior to use.
Footnote * - A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
