Material Description

Material Number	Material Number (single)	Standard	Scope	Standard Status	Country	Predecessor	VDA 231-106 classification
EN AC-43400 (DIN EN 1706 : 2021-10)	EN AC-43400	DIN EN 1706 : 2021-10	Supersedes DIN EN 1706 : 2020-06	1	Germany	EN AC-Al Si10Mg(Fe)	2.1	1)
1) Remark: Aluminum casting alloy (pressure die casting). The alloy is food safe acc. to EN 601. Further properties according to EN 1706: Pressure tightness: good Machinability (as cast): good Corrosion resistance: good/fair Weldability: fair Further information according to VAR Verband der Aluminiumrecycling-Industrie e.V., Düsseldorf: Near-eutectic alloy with excellent casting properties, good hot cracking resistance, good machinability and high chemical resistance. Application: for complex, thin-walled, pressure-tight and vibration-resistant castings with highest strength after age hardening and best corrosion resistance, e.g. complex and highly stressed machine parts, such as cylinder heads, crankcases, brake shoes, parts for fast-running vibrating motors and fans
