AZ91C and E-T6: General-purpose alloy, moderate strength
AZ92A-T6: Pressure tight, good strength
EQ21A-T6: Pressure tight, excellent short-time elevated-temperature mechanical properties
HK31A-T6: Good castability, pressure tight, creep resistant to 350o C (660 o F)
HZ32A-T5: Good castability, pressure tight, equal or better creep resistance than HK31A-T6 to 260o C
(500o F)
QE22A-T6: Good castability, pressure tight, high yield strength to 200o C (400o F)

WE43A-T6: High strength at room and elevated temperatures (to 290o C, or 550o F), good corrosion resistance
WE54A-T6: Similar to WE43A-T6, but slowly loses ductility upon exposure to 150o C (300o F)
ZC63A-T6: Pressure tight, stronger and more castable than AZ91C
ZE41A-T5: Pressure tight, medium-strength elevated-temperature alloy, improved castability over ZK51A
