BS EN 573-3:2007 Aluminium and aluminium alloys. Chemical composition and form of wrought products. Chemical composition and form of products
If you design, manufacture or purchase aluminium and aluminium products you will be interested to know that BSI British Standards publishes a wide range of standards. Best practice guidelines, supporting documentation and specifications can help to ensure that your organization is able to reap the benefits of standardization.
BS EN 573-3 is the European standard that specifies the chemical composition limits of wrought aluminium and wrought aluminium alloys and form of products.
The chemical composition limits of aluminium and aluminium alloys specified in BS EN 573-3 are identical with those registered with the Aluminum Association, 1525, Wilson Boulevard, Suite 600, Arlington, VA 22209, USA, for the corresponding alloys.
