Heat Treatment for AC2B

[Salvatio]

I'm currently using grade AC2B Al alloy to cast break master and clutch master, using gravity die mould. In what way can i enhance the properties of this material..? Like in alternative HT..

How do you want to enhance the proerties, more elongation, more proof stress, more tensile strength.

what is the chemical analysis

The AC2B aluminum alloy designation is listed under Japanese Casting specification KSD 6008. A cross reference with this casting specification indicates the AC2B is an AA 319 Aluminum alloy casting - F or T6.

The AA 319 can be sand cast or permanent mold cast. There are three strength levels based on tempers offered by some foundries;

AA 319 -F as cast, lowest strength ~ 27 ksi min UTS

AA 319 - T5 ~30 Ksi min UTS

AA 319 - T6 ~36 Ksi min UTS
