Units
Condition
- Condition
- as-cast recycled EN AW-2007 continuous-cast rod ingot
- Temper
- as-cast; no wrought temper claimed
- Heat treatment
- none after casting for this card
- Product form
- continuous-cast rod-shaped ingot
- Thickness / diameter range
- 70 mm ingot diameter x 5000 mm length; 10 mm tensile-specimen diameter
- Test direction
- tensile direction relative to casting axis not explicitly stated
- Processing route
- approximately 250 kg EN AW-2007 scrap/chips, resistance-furnace melted, argon refined and four-strand continuous cast
- Temperature range
- Mechanical-test temperature is not reported.
- Notes
- One recycled industrial melt and continuous-casting campaign. Exact measured chemistry, casting geometry and as-cast test semantics are retained. Values are experimental, not wrought-product minima or design allowables.
