What is BS EN 485-1 - Wrought aluminium and wrought aluminium alloy about?

BS EN 485 is a series of European standards on aluminium and aluminium alloys that discusses the best procedures and specifications required for manufacturing high-quality wrought aluminium and wrought aluminium alloy sheets, strips, and plates. BS EN 485-1 is the first part of a series of documents on aluminium and aluminium alloys. BS EN 485-1 specifies the technical conditions for inspection and delivery of wrought aluminium and wrought aluminium alloy sheet, strip, and plate for general applications. BS EN 485-1 also includes provisions for ordering and testing.

BS EN 485-1 applies to products with a thickness over 0,20 mm up to and including 400 mm.

For many special applications of aluminium strip, sheet, and plate, specific European Standards exist, where different or additional requirements are formulated and the appropriate alloys and tempers are selected.
