CEN/TC 133/WG 7 - Ingots and castings

This document specifies the composition, mechanical properties and other relevant characteristics of copper and copper alloys. The sampling procedures and test methods for the verification of conformity to the requirements of this document are also specified.
This document is applicable to:
a)   copper alloy ingots intended to be remelted for later processing (e.g. castings); and
b)   copper and copper alloy castings which are intended for use without subsequent working other than machining.
Recommended practice for the ordering and supply of castings is included in Annex A. Optional supplementary inspection procedures for ingots and castings are included in Annex B.
NOTE   Ingots are not suitable for pressure equipment applications.

This European Standard specifies the compositions of copper-based master alloys intended for the manufacture, deoxidation, or desulfurization of cast or wrought alloys, especially those based on copper, supplied in the form of ingots, notched bar, notched slab (waffle plate), granules or broken pieces.
A procedure is included for sampling the master alloys for analysis for verification of conformity to the composition requirements.
A method for the determination of chromium(III)-oxide in chromium-copper master alloy is given in annex A.

The sampling procedures and test methods for the verification of conformity to the requirements of this standard are also specified.  This standard is applicable to:  a) copper alloy ingots intended to be remelted for the production of castings; and  b) copper and copper alloy castings which are intended for use without subsequent working other than machining. The castings may be manufactured by the sand, permanent mould, centrifugal, continuous or pressure die casting process.  Recommended practice for the ordering and supply of castings is included in annex A. Optional supplementary inspection procedures for ingots and castings are included in annex B.
