INTRODUCTION

This Handbook was prepared by Standards Australia as a ready reference to identify standard

commercial metal and alloy designations of overseas origin, to relate them to a sourceStandard and where possible to give their Australian counterparts in terms of chemical

composition.

The H andbook covers steel (wrought, cast and tool), cast iron, copper and copper alloys,

aluminium and aluminium alloys, zinc and zinc alloys, and lead and lead alloys. For

convenience, solders have been grouped under lead and lead alloys in Chapter 7.

The designations listed represent those metals and alloys w hich have been standardized by

the International Organization for S tandardization, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, the

United States of America, Germany and Japan. The designations are not in themselvesspecifications, since they establish no requirements for form, condition, properties or quality.

This information may be sought from the Standards listed in the Appendices, although it

should be noted that the Standards listed are representative only and not necessarily acomplete list of specifications applicable to a particular designation.

Further information on designations and product forms is available in the Standards AustraliaHandbook, HB17, Metals and alloys Standard terminology and nomenclature .
