prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 132, Aluminium and aluminium alloys, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 1998, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 1998 Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 entrusted CEN/TC 132/WG 4, Wires and drawing stock, to prepare the following standard: EN 1715-3, Aluminium and aluminium alloys — Drawing stock — Part 3: Specific requirements for mechanical uses (excluding welding) This standard is part of a set of four standards The other standards deal with: EN 1715-1, Aluminium and aluminium alloys — Drawing stock — Part 1: General requirements and technical conditions for inspection and delivery EN 1715-2, Aluminium and aluminium alloys — Drawing stock — Part 2: Specific requirements for electrical applications EN 1715-4, Aluminium and aluminium alloys — Drawing stock — Part 4: Specific requirements for welding applications According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom Contents Foreword Scope Normative references Specifications 3.1 Chemical composition 3.2 Temper of delivery Product inspection and

Copy, (c) BSI EN 1715-3:1997 Scope 3.2 Temper of delivery This Part of EN 1715 applies to drawing stock of aluminium alloys for general mechanical uses (excluding welding) and specifies characteristics and specific technical conditions for inspection and delivery of these products The general requirements and technical conditions for inspection and delivery are specified in EN 1715-1 This standard does not apply to drawn wire In the case of more demanding uses in terms of surface aspects, ductility etc., the final use shall be indicated and special requirements shall be agreed between the producer and purchaser The variety of application of drawn wire made from drawing stock of aluminium and aluminium alloys used for mechanical applications requires a precise definition of the temper of delivery, which is liable to exert a significant influence on the ability to process and on the final characteristics Tempers shall be indicated in accordance with EN 515 The usual tempers for drawing stock covered by this standard are: — F: as fabricated; — O: annealed by heat treatment on the coil; — O3: homogenized by high-temperature treatment; — T4: heat solution treated, quenched and naturally aged (for age-hardening alloys) These tempers are listed in Table with typical ranges of mechanical characteristics (tensile strength) If no temper is specified when ordering, the delivered temper shall be F Particular requirements concerning the mechanical strength range shall be agreed between the supplier and purchaser Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision For undated references, the
