Aluminium Alloy en Ab-47100: Chemical Designation: en Ab-Alsi12Cu1 (Fe) Swedish Standard: Type - , (1)

This document summarizes the properties and applications of the aluminium alloy EN AB-47100. It is an eutectic alloy with excellent castability, fluidity, and resistance to hot tearing. It is suitable for complicated thin-wall, pressure-tight castings subjected to fatigue loading. The alloy has good machinability and satisfactory mechanical properties but poor weldability and resistance to corrosion.
