ASTM B951-08
Historical Standard: ASTM B951-08 Standard Practice for Codification of Unalloyed Magnesium and Magnesium-Alloys, Cast and Wrought
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM B951
1. Scope
1.1 This practice provides a system for designating unalloyed magnesium and magnesium-alloys that have been used commercially since 1952, and thus is intended to be the registration source for unalloyed magnesium and magnesium-alloys. A record of designations along with the established compositions is given in Table 2.
1.2 The equivalent Unified Numbering System (UNS) alloy designations shown in the appendixes are in accordance with Practice E 527 .
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
