This Part of EN 1592 specifies the mechanical properties of wrought aluminium alloy HF seam welded tubes for general engineering applications. It is not applicable to irrigation and heat exchanger tubes. The chemical composition limits of these materials are given in EN 573-3. Mechanical property limits are specified for all Class A alloys, as defined in EN 573-4. The definitions of temper designations are specified in EN 515.
