CC601 standard

[fred01]

Can someone please tell what standard defines the aluminium alloy CC601.
What about other aluminium alloys such as LM25 and A356.

Thanks.

I am not familiar with an aluminium alloy designation CC601. LM25 is a British designation from the standard BS 1490. It has been superceded by a variety of EN standards (BS EN 1559, 1706, etc.):

A356 is a U.S. designation. The Aluminum Association maintains the official chemical composition requirements, which are subsequently included in various standards: ASTM B 179, B 26, etc. You can find additional information from the following websites:

Hi,
CC601 is given by Alcan as a synonim for A356 and A357. See
