This document defines the grades and the corresponding requirements for cast alloyed magnesium materials.
This document specifies 2 groups of magnesium alloy grades by a classification based on the chemical composition. The first group deals with grades for magnesium alloy ingots. The second group deals with grades for magnesium alloy castings.
This document also specifies mechanical properties measured on test pieces machined from cast samples.
This document does not cover technical delivery conditions for magnesium alloy castings (see EN 1559-1 [7] and EN 1559-5 [8]).

This part of EN 1559 specifies the additional technical delivery conditions for castings, see EN 1753 and cast anodes, see EN 12438 made from magnesium alloys.
This part of EN 1559 applies to magnesium alloy castings produced in sand or permanent moulds or by pressure die casting, centrifugal casting, continuous casting or investment casting.
This part of EN 1559 does not apply to ingots, bars, billets (or other shapes) for further reprocessing, such as re-melting or extrusion.

This European Standard specifies the chemical composition of magnesium alloys for ingots. It also specifies the chemical composition of magnesium alloy castings. It also specifies the mechanical properties of separately cast samples of these alloys (see clause 6). By agreement, it also specifies the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys castings determined from samples cut from a casting.

This part of EN 1559 applies to castings made from magnesium alloys produced by sand casting, permanent mould casting, pressure die casting, centrifugal casting, continuous casting or investment casting. This standard specifies the additional technical delivery conditions for magnesium alloy castings. This standard does not apply to ingots, bars, billets (or other shapes) for further reprocessing, such as remelting, grinding or extrusion.
