Description

The AK7 alloy used: for the manufacture of various ingots and shaped castings by various casting methods (sand casting, investment casting, gravity die casting, pressure); casting of parts of metallurgical equipment.

Note

Aluminum foundry alloy of the system Al-Si-Mg.
Heat-treatable alloy with good strength properties, but with reduced toughness and corrosion resistance.
Technological characteristics of the alloy close to alloy grade Ak7ch.
