ASTM International’s committee on nonferrous metals and alloys ( B02 ) is proposing two new standards. One is for a zinc-aluminum-copper alloy with improved strength while the other seeks to determine the requirements for die castings with thin walls which can help reduce industry costs. The first proposed standard ( WK 63461 ) is for an alloy that seeks to improve the elevated temperature…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Molly Lynyak, tel +1.610.832.9743; mlynyak@astm.org Release #10564
