SHELLCAST is working with High-strength
Aluminum Casting Alloy A205

A205 is the strongest cast aluminum alloy currently available and is producing exceptional results in a number of areas.

* Some limitations may apply, depending on overall size, geometry and
  wall thickness.

Benefits of A205

• Reduces defects traditionally associated with high-strength 200-series copper alloys,
• Elimination of hot tearing or segregation defects common in 200-series alloys,
• Improved resistance to stress corrosion cracking,
• Improved compositional and mechanical properties,
• Exceptional fatigue properties,

• Improved properties at elevated temperatures over traditional cast alloys (400F+),
• Elimination of segregation issues in large sections,
  
• Elimination of aluminum copper alloy castability and welding related issues,
• Fluidity comparable to aluminum silicon alloys,
• Reduction of shrinkage or porosity.
