Overview

This European Standard defines general terms relating to products of aluminium and aluminium alloys which are helpful for communication within the aluminium industry and with its customers. It includes terms dealing with aluminium products, processing, sampling and testing, product characteristics and different types of visual quality characteristics. It does not include terms dealing with bauxite mining, alumina and anode production and aluminium smelting. This European Standard tries to adhere as closely as possible to the terms and definitions used in other standards or documents. For materials other than aluminium, different definitions can apply to terms which are defined in this document. This European Standard tries to follow the "common language" as it is used in native English speaking countries, without giving preference to specific idioms of any one of these counties. In cases where in different English-speaking countries different terms are used for the same concept or different concepts refer to an identical term, the appropriate explanations are given. This European Standard (EN 12258-1:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 "Aluminium and aluminium alloys" (secretariat: AFNOR, France) of the European Committee of Standardization (CEN). The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 066-01 FBR "Fachbereichsrat Aluminium" ("Steering committee of the section aluminium)" of the Nonferrous Metals Standards Committee (FNNE) at DIN, the German Institute for Standardization e. V.
