Chemical composition

Only reviewed weight-percent bounds are listed. A blank bound means only the other threshold was reported.

Original-supplier Aluman-16, not all AlMn1.6 alloys. The 2015 overview, 2016 handbook, current product page and REACH sheet are one issuer, not independent votes. Main mechanical ranges do not specify wall thickness; they are not means or specification minima. REACH ingredient disclosure is not an ingot composition specification. Blank fatigue and gravity-shrinkage cells remain absent. Dust ignition does not describe bulk alloy ignition.
