3.2315 (VdTÜV WB 240 : 1987-06) 3.2315 VdTÜV WB 240 : 1987-06 Valid Germany -196 - 280 1)
1) Remark: Valid for leg pressed rods hardenable alumnium-wrought alloy comparable to EN AW-Al Si1MgMn, mat. No EN AW-6082 material state F40 smelting: - inductive ofen Application: - for pressure vessels acc. to TRB 100 and AD-technical bulletin W 6/1 for screws and nuts from - 196 to 100 °C - in nuclear power engineering, as far as nuclear rules resp. object-related specifications allow application from - 196 °C bis 100 °C - the material is machined to screws and nuts only To the mark EN AW-Al Si1MgMn acc. to DIN EN 573-3 : 1994-12 applies: The material is used for sheet, strip and plates, for centre punching, for rolled and pressed billets, for forged parts and prematerial, for pressed parts and presswork components as well as for wire and prewire for HF-welded tubes. To the comparable mark AlMgSi1, Werkstoff-Nr. 3.2315, acc. to DIN 1725-1 applies: AlMgSi1 is the longest-established alloy of type AlMgSi. This natural and artificial ageable material achieves strength values from 200 to 315 N/mm² at A-5 values of approx. 6 to 18 %. In hardened condition it is only limited formable , in soft condition it is well formable. The alloy has a favorable weldability, corrosion resistance and anodizability. It is predominantly used due to its favorable corrosion resistance, although it has the highest strength values of all alloys of this type. Furthermore it is ( in spite of its favorable weldability) applicated for screwed connections and riveted joints. In weld seam sector appear undesirable strength losses . Application: for carrying constructions (staticly loaded), in apparatus and tank construction for heat-exchanger, for pressure gas cylinder, technical extrusion parts, in vehicle engineering for tank and bulk vehicles, motor busses, body parts, for safety parts, wheels and superstructure. In machine engineering for appliances, tools (anchor plates, head and punch unit plates as well as guide plates), machine benches, hydraulics/pneumatics, shaft clutches (forged parts), roller tubes, brake disks and brake drums (with sprayed wear coating), connecting elements (screws, rivets), in food industry (incl. commercial devices), in rail vehicle manufacturing for wagon doors, wheel disks, axle bearing cases, wagon bodies, in shipbuilding (incl. equipment) for the hull, superstructure, radar systems, in mining, construction trade for shutters, roll-up gates, for camping furniture and for metal goods (fittings).
