A319 (A319.0) is a widely used aluminum-silicon-copper casting alloy known for good castability and cost-effectiveness. The copper addition provides solid strength and hardness, making it a reliable general-purpose foundry alloy. Linsy supplies A319 as ingot, billet, and custom cast components with an MTC on every order.
Available forms: ingot / billet / sand casting / permanent-mold casting / die casting
Common tempers: F / T4 / T5 / T6
Processing support: CNC machining / heat treatment / NDT inspection
Quality documents: MTC report with every order
A319 Aluminum Casting Alloy is an aluminum-silicon-copper casting alloy supplied by Linsy for foundries and component manufacturers. It is valued for good castability, reasonable strength, and cost-effectiveness in sand, permanent-mold, and die-casting processes. Linsy provides ingot and billet feedstock as well as custom cast components, with an MTC supplied on every order.

F (as-cast) is used where no heat treatment is required. T4 (solution + natural age) improves strength and ductility. T5 (artificial age only) gives moderate strength with good dimensional stability. T6 (solution + artificial age) is the most common choice for maximum strength. Select the temper based on the mechanical and thermal demands of the final part.
The silicon content delivers good fluidity and low shrinkage, making the alloy suitable for complex thin-wall castings.
Copper additions raise strength and hardness relative to lower-copper casting grades, supporting structural and wear-facing applications.
The alloy offers fair corrosion resistance. Welding is possible but should be specified with engineering review; post-weld heat treatment may be needed to recover properties.
A319 Aluminum Casting Alloy is normally supplied as ingot/billet or as cast components. Machining is straightforward in the T5/T6 condition. Surface treatments such as anodizing are limited by the high silicon content and should be evaluated case by case. Dimensional and NDT inspection can be arranged to drawing.
Every order ships with an MTC reporting chemical analysis and mechanical results for the lot. Additional inspection such as X-ray, dye penetrant, or pressure testing can be arranged on request.
