511.0, 512.0 and 513.0

Abstract

The Al-Mg moderate-strength casting alloys 511.0, 512.0 and 513.0 are variations of alloy 514.0. Their most important characteristic is corrosion resistance, including exposure to seawater and marine atmospheres. This datasheet provides information on key alloy metallurgy, fabrication characteristics, processing effects on physical and mechanical properties, and applications of these alloys.
