Precision Cast Plate Material Grades
The precision cast plate range covers two principal material families used for machining and tooling applications: 5000-series magnesium-based cast plates and 7000-series zinc-based cast plates.
5000-Series Precision Cast Plates
The 5000-series family is based on EN AW-5083 / AlMg4.5Mn0.7 and includes commercial designations such as ALCA 5, ACP 5080, G.AL C250 and ATP-5. The supplied reference data lists tensile strength of 240–290 MPa, yield strength of 110–130 MPa and hardness of 70–74 HBW.
For grade-specific specifications, see ALCA 5 aluminium plate supplier for the dedicated ALCA 5 product range.
7000-Series Precision Cast Plates
The 7000-series family uses a modified AlZnMgCu matrix and includes commercial designations such as MIC6, ACP 7000 and G.AL C330. The reference data lists tensile strength of 165–241 MPa, yield strength of 105–138 MPa and hardness of 65–68 HBW.
For the specific MIC6 grade, see MIC6 aluminium plates supplier in India for detailed product specifications and supply information.
