1) Remark: Aluminum casting alloy (pressure die casting) for complex, thin-walled castings. Further properties according to EN 1706: Pressure tightness: fair Machinability (as cast): fair Corrosion resistance: fair Weldability: unsuitable Further information according to VAR Verband der Aluminiumrecycling-Industrie e.V., Düsseldorf: Eutectic alloy with excellent mould filling capacity, high hot cracking resistance and excellent casting properties. Application: for complex, thin-walled castings, e.g. machine parts, parts subject to impact and vibration, cylinder heads and blocks, engine, crank and pump housings, impellers, ribbed bodies, thin-walled housings, difficult assembly blocks and plates
