1 Coefficient to be multiplied by 10-6. Example 12.2 x 10-6 = 0.0000122.
2 Melting ranges shown apply to wrought products of 1 4 inch thickness or greater.
3 Based on typical composition of the indicated alloys.
4 English units = btu-in/ft 2 hr °F.
5 Eutectic melting is not eliminated by homogenization.
6 Eutectic melting can be completely eliminated by homogenization
