Designation: B 26/B 26M – 05
Standard Specification for
Aluminum-Alloy Sand Castings1
This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 26/B 26M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.
A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.
1. Scope*
1.1 This specification2 covers aluminum-alloy sand castings
designated as shown in Table 1.
1.2 This specification is not intended for aluminum-alloy
sand castings used in aerospace applications.
1.3 Alloy and temper designations are in accordance with
ANSI H35.1 and H35.1M. Unified Numbering System alloy
designations are in accordance with Practice E 527.
1.4 Unless the order specifies the “M” specification desig-
nation, the material shall be furnished to the inch-pound units.
1.5 For acceptance criteria for inclusion of new aluminum
and aluminum alloys and their properties in this specification,
see Annex A1 and Annex A2.
1.6 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units
are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in
each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each
system shall be used independently of the other. Combining
values from the two systems may result in non-conformance
with the standard.
1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-
priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-
bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

permissible variations specified, as shown on the blueprints or
drawings, shall rest with the producer, except where pattern
equipment is furnished by the purchaser.
7. Chemical Composition
7.1 The castings shall conform to the chemical composition
limits prescribed in Table 1. Conformance shall be determined
by the producer by analyzing samples taken at the time the
castings are poured, or samples taken from castings or tension
test specimens representative of castings. If the producer has
determined the chemical composition of the material during the
course of manufacture, he shall not be required to sample and
analyze the finished product.
8. Sampling
8.1 A sample for determining of chemical composition shall
be taken to represent the following:
8.1.1 Not more than 2000 lb [1000 kg] of clean castings
(gates and risers removed) or a single casting poured from one
furnace.
8.1.2 Castings poured continuously from one furnace for
not more than 8 consecutive hours.
8.2 Samples for determination of chemical composition
shall be taken in accordance with one of the following
methods:
8.2.1 Samples for Chemical Analysis— Samples for chemi-
cal analysis shall be in accordance with Practice E 88 except
that the weight of a prepared sample shall be not less than 75
g.
8.2.2 Samples for Spectrochemical and Other Methods of
Analysis—Sampling for spectrochemical analysis shall be in
accordance with Practices E 716. Samples for other methods of
analysis shall be suitable for the form of material being
analyzed and the type of analytical methods used.
9. Methods for Determination of Chemical Composition
9.1 The determination of chemical composition shall be
made in accordance with suitable chemical (Test Methods
E 34) or spectrochemical (Test Methods E 607 and E 1251)
methods. Other methods may be used only when no published
ASTM method is available. In case of dispute, the method of
analysis shall be agreed upon by the producer and the pur-
chaser.
10. Material Requirements—Castings Produced for
Governmental and Military Agencies
10.1 Unless otherwise specified, only aluminum alloy con-
forming to the requirements of Specification B 179 or produc-
er’s foundry scrap (identified as being made from alloy
conforming to Specification B 179) shall be used in the
remelting furnace from which molten metal is taken for
pouring directly into castings. Additions of small amounts of
modifiers and grain refining elements or alloys are permitted.
10.1.1 Pure materials, recycled materials, and master alloys
may be used to make alloys conforming to this specification,
provided chemical analysis can be taken and adjusted to
conform to Table 1 prior to pouring any castings.
11. Foundry Control—Castings Produced for
Governmental or Military Agencies, or Both
11.1 When specified, castings shall be produced under
foundry control approved by the purchaser. Foundry control
shall consist of examination of castings by radiographic or
other approved methods for determining internal discontinui-
ties until the gating, pouring, and other foundry practices have
been established to produce castings meeting the quality
standards furnished by the purchaser or agreed upon between
the purchaser and the producer. When foundry practices have
been so established, the production method shall not be
significantly changed without demonstrating to the satisfaction
of the purchaser that the change does not adversely affect the
quality of the castings. Minor changes in pouring temperature
of 650°F [628°C] from the established nominal temperature
are permissible.
12. Tensile Properties
12.1 The separately cast test specimens representing the
castings shall meet the mechanical properties prescribed in
Table 2.
12.2 Although Alloys 705.0, 707.0, 712.0, and 713.0 are
most frequently used in the naturally aged condition, by
agreement between the producer and the purchaser, the cast-
ings may be artificially aged to the T5 temper. The producer
and the purchaser may also agree to base the acceptance of
castings on artificially aged test bars. The conditions of
artificial aging shown in Practice B 917/B 917M shall be
employed unless other conditions are accepted by mutual
consent.
12.3 When specified, the tensile strength, yield strength, and
elongation values of specimens cut from castings shall be not
less than 75 % of the tensile and yield strength values and not
less than 25 % of the elongation values specified in Table 2
[Table 3]. The measurement of the elongation is not required
for test specimens cut from castings if 25 % of the specified
minimum elongation value published in Table 2 [Table 3] is 0.5
% or less. If grade D quality castings as described in Table 4
are specified, no tensile tests shall be specified nor tensile
requirements be met on specimens cut from castings.
13. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance
13.1 The finished castings shall be uniform in composition
and free of blowholes, cracks, shrinks, and other discontinui-
ties except as designated and agreed u
