Foreword
This document (EN 755-2:2008) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 “Aluminium and
aluminium alloys", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be aiven the status of a national standard, ether by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn atthe latest by September 2008.
This document supersedes EN 755-2:1997,
Within its programme of work, Technical committee CEN/TC 132 entrusted CENITC 132WWG 5 “Extruded and

3. Mechanical property limits
3.4. General
‘The mechanical properties shall be in conformity with those specified in Tables 1 to 57 or those agreed upon
between supplier and purchaser and stated in the order document.
Tables 1 to 57 contain limits of mechanical property values obtained by tensile testing according to EN 10002-
1 after sampling and test piece preparation according to EN 755-1
NOTE The mechanical properties refer to test pieces taken in the longitudinal direction. Mechanical properties of test
pieces taken in other directions can differ from those forthe longitudinal direction quoted in this standard.
Brinell hardness values given in Tables 1 to 57 expressed as BW values are for information only.
3.2 Elongation
{not otherwise agreed, the 4 value shall be used.
‘The 4 value for elongation is the % elongation measured over a gauge length of 55/5) (where Sys the initial
cross-sectional area of the test-piece), and expressed in percent.
For certain products the supplier may choose (if not otherwise specified in the order documents) to use the
elongation based on Asomm Consequently values for the Asem are included in the following tables.
“The Asda Value Is the elongation measured over a gauge length of 50 mm and expressed in percent.
