*Thermal Conductivity (@77F, SI units): 0.24 cal/cm*s*K
*Heat Treatment - Achieves its physical and mechanical properties as-cast (F). This eliminates thetime and cost ofheat teating.
'Machinability - Excellent machinability as-cast, excellent surface finish and high dimensional stability.
*Corrosion Resistance - Highest of any cast alloy. It can be anodizedfor additional corrosion protection to a 0.7 ml thickness (215R1).
*'Finishing - Prodces an excellent surface finish by burnishing or polishing. Anodizes well to a clear satin fiish due to the minimal amount of silicon in the alloy.
*Weldability - It can be welded by any of the inert gas processes, T.I.G. or M.I.G., using filler rod 5356 or 5183
