Magnesium EQ-21A-T6, Sand/Permanent Mold Castings
Categories:	Metal; Nonferrous Metal; Magnesium Alloy
Material Notes:	Typically used for commercial and military sand and permanent-mold castings used in the solution-treated and artificially aged condition (T6 temper) with high yield strengths up to 200°C. Alloy is equivalent to QE22A, but with lower silver content, and thus lower cost. Castings have excellent short-time elevated-temperature mechanical properties and are pressure tight and weldable.
Key Words:	UNS M18330; European EN 1753 MC65220; AMS 4417; ASTM B 80; ASTM B 199; ASTM B 403 (Ingot UNS M18330)
