【国外标准】 Standard Specification for Zinc and Zinc-Aluminum (ZA) Alloy Foundry and Die Castings

This specification covers commercial zinc, zinc-aluminum castings and continuous cast bar stock. Seven alloy compositions are specified and designated: Alloy 3; Alloy 7; Alloy 5; Alloy 2; ZA-8; ZA-12; ZA-27. The metal used in the manufacture of die castings shall be zinc alloy of a specified chemical composition conforming to the requirements specified. Impact test and tension test shall be made to conform to the specified requirements.1.1 This specification covers commercial zinc, zinc-aluminum castings and continuous cast bar stock, as designated and specified in Table 1. Eight alloy compositions are specified and designated as follows:Common Traditional ASTM A UNS       Alloy 3 Zamak 3 AG 40A B Z33525Alloy 7 Zamak 7 AG 40B Z33527Alloy 5 Zamak 5 AC 41A B Z35533Alloy 2 Zamak 2 AC 43A Z35545ZA-8 ZA-8  ...

Zinc-Aluminum Alloys Z35638, Z35633, and Z35841 are used in the manufacture of both foundry and pressure die castings. These alloys are also fabricated into continuous cast bar stock used for prototyping and screw machine stock.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.1.4 Systems of nomenclature used to designate zinc and zinc-aluminum (ZA) alloys used for casting are described in Appendix X1.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to become familiar with all hazards including those identified in the appropriate Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for this product/material as provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
