NEED HELP IDENTIFYING AN ALLOY
NEED HELP IDENTIFYING AN ALLOY
(OP)
All of the equipment on one of our film casting lines was designed and built by a Japanese machine builder. One component needs some restructuring and the builder has told us the material is ANP-79 (I'm not sure if there is a hyphen, space or nothing before the 79). Can anyone tell me what the alloy components are and/or the physical properties? I believe it to be an aluminum or magnesium alloy and has a black finish, maybe hard coat anodize. Any help will be appriciated.

aka DIN 3.4345 (AlZnMgCu0,5).
Also produced by ThyssenKrupp in Thailand, see AA 7022-T651 data:

Note that properties are ~identical to ANP79 from Namekawa. Seems to only be produced to the T651 temper (to minimize SCC no doubt), so that minimizes guesswork.
Can find more info by searching on aluminum 3.4345 .
