Alloy & specification reference
Find specifications and their associated alloys in one organized reference.
This reference groups specifications by their associated alloy families. Parent designations consolidate revision letters, years, slash sheets and SAE prefixes; alloy and temper wording is retained as supplied.
This is a reference index, not a list of current casting capabilities or a statement of approval to every specification. The exact specification, revision, slash sheet, material and inspection requirements must be confirmed for each project.
