ASTM A206-T4 Fatigue Property Data 2

[materials2018]

Hello,

My FEA team is looking for fatigue property data for ASTM A206 Aluminum in T4 condition. Are there online resources that could contain this data?

Thanks.

Try here for starters, although it is aged information it is useful.

WHY A201.0-T4 ?????????? All data I reviewed states 'use in -T7 temper'...

1. ASTM B686-18 Standard Specification for Aluminum Alloy Castings, High-Strength

A201.0 (c)
(c) Alloy A201.0 is intended for use in the –T7 temper, which provides a high level
of resistance to stress-corrosion cracking when properly heat treated. In other
tempers, alloy A201.0 may exhibit susceptibility to stress-corrosion cracking.
Additionally, its tendency for hot shortness may make alloy A201.0 unsuitable in
some casting designs.

2. MMPDS-10

A201.0-T7 AMS-A-21180 and AMS 4229

Wil,

Thank you for the response, but I am looking for A206 not A201.

Dohoooo , never mind...

WHAT ASTM spec are You referring to for A206-T4 castings?
