DTD numbers--DTD 59

Sat Mar 13, 2010 12:15 am

Does anyone know where to find a list of DTD numbers showing material it is related too?

Or, what is DTD 59 and any idea of its mechanical specs. (Believe it to be a cast aluminum)

DTD 59 is an obsolete spec that was superseded by BS 121. BS 121 has since been withdrawn. BS 121 is an Magnesium alloy casting spec that has an alloy designation of MG-C18001, with a common name of AZ81/AZ81A.
