BIS CERTIFICATION FOR WROUGHT ALUMINUM AND ALUMINUM ALLOYS, FORGED STOCKS AND FORGINGS USED FOR GENERAL ENGINEERING PURPOSES IS 734:1975

Mandatory BIS certification is required for wrought aluminum and aluminum alloys, forged stocks, and forgings used in general engineering applications. According to IS 734:1975, these materials play essential roles in various industries owing to their distinctive properties. They are prepared through processes like rolling, extrusion, or drawing, rendering them highly versatile. Their exceptional blend of strength, lightweight design, corrosion resistance, recyclability, and ease of manufacture make them preferred options for a wide array of industrial and technical uses, thereby contributing significantly to modern engineering and industrial practices.

IS 734:1975 delineates the specifications for aluminum and aluminum alloy forging stocks and forgings in different conditions for general engineering applications. In addition to detailing the chemical composition, the standard establishes criteria for tensile strength, elongation, and 0.2 percent proof strain.

The ISI certification scheme is obligatory for general engineering applications under IS 734:1975, encompassing all wrought aluminum and aluminum alloys, forged stocks, and forgings. This standard delineates testing procedures, chemical and physical prerequisites, and production processes to ensure adherence.
