    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Defines the general technical delivery conditions for castings made from cast metallic materials except copper alloy castings.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This part of EN1559 specifies the general technical delivery conditions for castings made from cast metallic materials except copper alloy castings.

    This part of EN1559 is not applicable to metallic castings for further reprocessing such as forging ingots and continuously cast billets and blooms.

    NOTE1 Technical delivery conditions for copper alloy castings are specified in EN1982.

    NOTE2 Additional technical delivery condition requirements which are specific to particular materials are specified in the following parts of this standard series: EN1559-2 for cast steel; EN1559-3 for cast iron; EN1559-4 for cast aluminium; EN1559-5 for cast magnesium; EN1559-6 for cast zinc.
