ASTM B86
astm-b86Grades that cite ASTM B86
The grades in our database whose sources name ASTM B86. Each row shows how the source prints it, the product form the source ties to it where it says so, and the strength we hold for the grade. This is a finding aid, not the standard: the current text of ASTM B86 is sold by its publisher.
Product forms named by our sources: ZA-12 die casting composition.
| Grade | As printed | Yield strength | Tensile strength |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zamak | B86 AG40A, B86 AC41A, B86 ZA-8 | 198 to 360 MPa | 207 to 397 MPa |
| Zinc-aluminium ZA-12 and ZA-27 foundry alloys | B86ZA-12 die casting composition | 257 to 379 MPa | 310 to 441 MPa |
| Zinc and zinc alloys (Zn) | B86 AG40A, B86 AC41A, B86 ZA-8 | 110 to 290 MPa | 150 to 374 MPa |
Ranges run across the tempers and conditions each source reports, so a heat-treatable grade shows a wide range. Open a grade for each value with its condition and source.
