Foreword
This document (EN 570:2007) 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by endorsement, at the latest by July 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by
July 2007.
This document supersedes EN 570:1994.
Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 entrusted CEN/TC 132/WG 11 "Slugs for impact
extrusion" to revise EN 570:1994.
The following technical modifications have been introduced during the revision:
 Clause 2: References to EN 754-3, EN 754-7, EN 754-8, EN 755-3, EN 755-7 and EN 755-8 added;
 Clause 4: Text modified;
 Clause 5: Text in 5.1.1 modified, former Table 2 deleted and replaced by reference to EN 755-3, former
  Table 4 deleted and replaced by references to EN 755-7 and EN 755-8;
 Table 6: Materials EN AW-1090, EN AW-1100, EN AW-3003, EN AW-5251, EN AW-6005A and
EN AW-6063 added; materials EN AW-5305, EN AW-5505 and EN AW-5110 deleted.
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 licences 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 coun-
tries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Den-
mark, 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 technical conditions for inspection and delivery, tolerances on dimensions and form
and other requirements for flat or preformed wrought aluminium and wrought aluminium alloy slugs for impact
extrusion.
It applies to slugs produced either by punching of rolled products or by cutting of extruded products.
Slugs covered in this document are suitable for the manufacture of impact extruded parts for packaging and indus-
trial applications.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
slug
piece of metal of uniform thickness of regular or irregular shape taken from a wrought product, usually for impact
extrusion with or without a centre hole
3.2
thickness
in slugs punched from rolled products, the thickness is measured perpendicular to the rolling plane, whilst in slugs
cut from extruded products thickness is measured in the extrusion direction

4 Ordering information
4.1 General
The selection of material and of the condition of supply is at the purchaser’s discretion. The purchaser should state
when ordering the intended use and any further processing envisaged.
The order shall describe the slug in the condition of delivery.
If preformed slugs are required, the type of preforming shall be given when ordering, together with a drawing speci-
fying the details.
4.2 Designation
4.2.1 Standard designation
The standard designation shall be given in the following order:
 the designation of product (slug);
 the number of this European Standard (EN 570);
 the designation of the aluminium or aluminium alloy, see 5.2;
 the slug shape, e.g. flat, round with or without hole, rectangular, preformed;
 dimensions in millimetres;
 the surface finish, see 5.4.2.
4.2.2 Examples of standard designation
4.2.2.1 Round slug without a centre hole (see Figure 1)
