LM 0 |
Alloy
suitable for Sand Casting, components for
Electrical, Chemical and Food Processing Industries. |
| LM 2 |
One of the two
most widely used alloys for all types of
die-castings. |
| LM 4 |
The most versatile
of the alloys, has very good casting characteristics
and isused for a very wide range of applications.
|
| |
Strength and
Hardness can be grately incresed by Heat Treatment. |
| LM 5 |
Suitable for Sand
and Chill Castings requiring maximul corrosion
resistance i.e.castings of marine application. |
| LM 6 |
Suitable for
large, intricate and thin walled castings in all
types of moulds, also used where corrosion
resistance or ductility is required. |
| LM 9 |
Used for
allplications especially low pressure die casting
requiring the characteristics of LM 6 with higher
tensile strength after heat treatment. |
| LM 12 |
Mainly used for
sand and chill castings requiring high strength and
shock resistance. Requires special foundry
techniques and heat treatment. |
| LM 13 |
Mainly used for
piston and applications where thermal stresses are
more. This alloy can witstand higher termperatures
and loads.It has good wear resistance properties and
machinability. Requires heat treatment. |
| LM 16 |
Suitable where
high mechanical properties are desired in fairly
intricate sand and chill castings. Requires heat
treatment. |
| LM 20 |
Mainly used for
pressure die casting. Similar to LM 6 but with
better machinability and hardness. |
| LM 21 |
Generally similar
to LM 4M in character and application but better
machinability and proof strength. |
| LM 22 |
Used for chill
castings requiring good foundry characteristics and
good ductility. Requires heat treatment. |
| LM 24 |
Suitable for
large, intricate and thin walled castings in all
types of moulds, also used where corrosion
resistance or ductiity is required. |
| LM 25 |
Suitable where
good corrosion resistance combined with thermal
properties are required. Strength is attained by
heat treatment. |
| LM 26 |
Mainly used for
pistons as alternate to LM 13. |
| LM 27 |
A versatile sand
and chill cast alloy introduced as an alternative to
LM 4 and LM 21. |
| LM 28 |
Piston alloy with
lower coefficient of thermal expansion than LM 13.
This alloy use requires special foundry technique. |
| LM 29 |
Same
characteristics as LM 28 but with still lower
coefficient of thermal expansion than LM 28. |
| LM 30 |
For unlined die
cast cylinder blocks with low expansion and
excellent wear resistance. |
| LM 31 |
