This European Standard specifies the chemical composition limits for aluminium casting alloys and
mechanical properties of separately cast test pieces for these alloys.
Annex B is included as a guide to the selection of alloys for a specific use or process.
This European Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 576, EN 1559-1, EN 1559-4, EN 1676
and EN ISO 8062-3.
