1.1 This specification2 covers die forgings, hand forgings, and rolled ring forgings in the alloys (Note 1) and tempers as shown in Table 2, Table 3, and Table 5. The maximum thicknesses for forgings within the scope of this specification are as indicated in those tables.
Note 1: Throughout this specification use of the term alloy in the general sense includes aluminum as well as aluminum alloy.
Note 2: For forging stock supplied as rolled or cold-finished bar or rod see Specification B211/B211M. For forging stock supplied as extruded bar or rod see Specification B221M.
1.2 Alloy and temper designations are in accordance with ANSI H35.1/H35.1(M). The equivalent Unified Numbering System alloy designations are those of Table 1 preceded by A9, for example, A91100 for aluminum 1100 in accordance with Practice E527.
1.3 For acceptance criteria for inclusion of new aluminum and aluminum alloys in this specification, see Annex A2.
1.4 This specification is the SI companion to Specification B247.
1.5 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.
