Foreword
This document (EN 546-2:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 “Aluminium and
aluminium alloys”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
the latest by June 2007.
This document supersedes EN 546-2:1996.
Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 entrusted CEN/TC 132/WG 6 "Foil and
finstock" to revise EN 546-2:1996.
The following modifications have been made:
 Clause 4: Table 1 and Table 2 amended. Alloy EN AW-8021B added in Table 1.
EN 546 comprises the following parts under the general title "Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Foil":
 Part 1: Technical conditions for inspection and delivery
 Part 2: Mechanical properties
 Part 3: Tolerances on dimensions
 Part 4: Special property requirements
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
CEN/TC 132 affirms it is its policy that in the case when a patentee refuses to grant licenses on standardised
standard products under reasonable and not discriminatory conditions, then this product shall be removed
from the corresponding standard.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland and United Kingdom.
1 Scope
This document specifies the mechanical properties of wrought aluminium and aluminium alloy foil.
The chemical composition limits of these materials are specified in EN 573-3.
The designations of aluminium and aluminium alloys and the temper designations used in this standard are
specified in EN 573-3 and the temper designation are defined EN 515.
