ASTM call out for A380 Aluminum
ASTM call out for A380 Aluminum
(OP)
I need to call out the ASTM equivalent for ANSI/AA A380.0 to specify the material on a drawing.
Would "ALUMINUM ALLOY SC84A ASTM B85" be correct and/or suficient? This is for a die cast aluminum part going to Korea. We do not want to use the JIS standard ADC10 because of the higher Si content.
Where can I get an ASTM spec (for free?) to send to Korea that specifies the composition for A380.0?

RE: ASTM call out for A380 Aluminum
I would use the UNS number when working with a Korean company. For your case:
Aluminum alloy A13800 according to ASTM B 85
