1、Designation: B 275 05Standard Practice forCodification of Certain Nonferrous Metals and Alloys, Castand Wrought1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 275; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of
2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers a system origi
3、nally adopted fordesignating light metals and alloys, cast and wrought, and laterextended to certain heavier, base-metal die-casting alloys.Those designations, which are currently being used in specifi-cations under the jurisdiction of Committees B02 on Nonfer-rous Metals and Alloys and B07 on Light
4、 Metals and Alloys,are listed in Table X2.1.1.1.1 The alloy designations now being used in CommitteeB07 specifications for aluminum and aluminum-alloy wroughtand cast products conform to ANSI H35.1. Alloys formerlycodified by this practice and the corresponding ANSI designa-tions are shown in Tables
5、 X3.1 and X3.2.1.2 This practice also provides a system for designatingmagnesium alloys that have been used commercially since1952, and thus is intended to be the registration source for newmagnesium alloys. A record of designations along with theestablished compositions is given in Table X4.1.1.3 T

Alloys4.1 Designation for alloys shall consist of not more than twoletters representing the alloying elements (Note 2) s
16、pecified inthe greatest amount, arranged in order of decreasing percent-ages, or in alphabetical order if of equal percentages, followedby the respective percentages rounded off to whole numbersand a serial letter (Notes 3 and 4). The full name of the basemetal precedes the designation, but it is om
17、itted for brevitywhen the base metal being referred to is obvious.NOTE 2For codification, an alloying element is defined as an element(other than the base metal) having a minimum content greater than zeroeither directly specified or computed in accordance with the percentagesspecified.NOTE 3The seri
18、al letter is arbitrarily assigned in alphabetical se-quence starting with “A” (omitting “I” and “O”) and serves to differentiateotherwise identical designations. A serial letter is necessary to completeeach designation.NOTE 4The designation of a casting alloy in ingot form is derivedfrom the composi
19、tion specified for the corresponding alloy in the form ofcastings. Thus, a casting ingot designation may consist of an alloydesignation having one or more serial letters, one for each productcomposition, or it may consist of one or more alloy designations.4.2 The letters used to represent alloying e
20、lements shall bethose in Table 1.4.3 In rounding percentages, the nearest whole number shallbe used. If two choices are possible as when the decimal isfollowed by a 5 only, or a 5 followed only by zeros, the nearesteven whole number shall be used.4.4 When a range is specified for the alloying elemen
21、t, therounded mean shall be used in the designation.4.5 When only a minimum percentage is specified for thealloying element, the rounded minimum percentage shall beused in the designation.5. Unalloyed Metals5.1 Designations for unalloyed metals consist of the speci-fied minimum purity, all digits re
22、tained but dropping thedecimal point, followed by a serial letter (Note 3). The fullname of the base metal precedes the designation, but it isomitted for brevity when the base metal being referred to isobvious.6.
