A356 Aluminum Casting Alloy
A356 is a popular aluminum-silicon-magnesium casting alloy prized for its outstanding castability, excellent weldability, and good corrosion resistance. When properly heat-treated (T6 temper), it develops high strength and ductility, making it a reliable, high-integrity choice. A356 is the go-to solution for complex shapes requiring pressure tightness and moderate to high strength.

Feature
- High strength: When heat-treated to the T6 temper, A356 is one of the strongest sand-cast aluminum alloys available.
- Excellent castability: The silicon content in A356 improves its fluidity during the casting process, allowing it to be formed into complex and intricate parts.
- Corrosion resistance: It exhibits good corrosion resistance, even in harsh environments like marine applications.
- Weldability: A356 has good welding characteristics, but it typically requires a post-weld heat treatment
