Scope

1.1 This standard provides systems for designating wrought aluminum and wrought aluminum alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys in the form of castings and foundry ingot, and the tempers in which aluminum and aluminum alloy wrought products and aluminum alloy castings are produced. Specific limits for chemical compositions and for mechanical and physical properties to which conformance is required are provided by applicable product standards.

Note-A numerical designation assigned in conformance with this standard should only be used to indicate an aluminum or an aluminum alloy having chemical composition limits identical to those registered with The Aluminum Association and, for wrought aluminum and wrought aluminum alloys, with the signatories of the Declaration of Accord on an International Alloy Designation System for Wrought Aluminum and Wrought Aluminum Alloys.
