What is BS EN 754-2 about?

BS EN 754 is a series of European standards on aluminium and aluminium alloys that discusses the criteria for manufacturing high-quality cold drawn rod/bar and tube. BS EN 754-2 is the second part of a series of documents on aluminium and aluminium alloys. BS EN 754-2 specifies the mechanical property limits resulting from tensile testing applicable to aluminium and aluminium alloy cold drawn rod/bar and tube.

Technical conditions for inspection and delivery, including product and testing requirements, are specified in EN 754-1. Temper designations are defined in EN 515. The chemical composition limits for these materials are given in EN 573-3.

Who is BS EN 754-2 for?

BS EN 754-2 on aluminium and aluminium alloys is relevant to:

Producers of aluminium and aluminium alloy cold drawn rod/bar and tube.
Mechanical engineers

Why should you use BS EN 754-2?

Cold finishing for aluminium is more commonly referred to as cold drawing or cold rolling, which are forms of cold finishing aluminium by pulling material through what is known as a draw die or rollers.

BS EN 754-2 provides a detailed explanation yon mechanical property limits, elongation, a reference list of the tables of mechanical properties of the relevant aluminium and aluminium alloys, detailed tables of mechanical properties of aluminium and aluminium alloys.

As a user of BS EN 754-2, you can be ensured of mechanical property limits of aluminium and aluminium alloys. With obedience and compliance to BS EN 754-2, you can efficiently manufacture high-quality aluminium alloy cold drawn rod/bar and tube. BS EN 754-2 helps you to build consumer trust and confidence in the product. With BS EN 754-2 you can be ensured that the products consistently meet and exceed quality assurance targets
