BS EN 546-3 is the third part of an international multi-series standard that covers the best practices for manufacturing high-quality products of aluminium and its alloys.
BS EN 546-3 specifies the tolerances on dimensions for single and double-rolled aluminium and aluminium alloy foil supplied in accordance with EN 546-1.
BS EN 546-3 on tolerances for aluminium foil is relevant to:
The tolerance of a metallic sheet can be defined as its ability to resist deformation. It is related to the thickness of the material. It is different for hot-rolled metal products and cold-rolled metal products such as aluminium foil.
BS EN 546-3 provides you with guidance on specifications for tolerances on dimensions for single rolled and double rolled aluminium and aluminium alloy foil, which helps the users to understand and decide the standard gauge, and width of foil.
Thus, BS EN 546-3 provides you with comprehensive information useful for designing high quality, cost-effective single-rolled and double rolled wrought aluminium and aluminium alloy foil with minimum or no manufacturing defects.
