Aluminium casting alloy LM25TF (Heat Treated Casting to BS 1490:1988 LM25TF) is a common general purpose alloy of aluminium which is used where good mechanical properties are needed. It has a good resistance to corrosion and has high strength. It responds well to heat treatment and is available in four different conditions. Its uses are increased by its availability in as-cast and partially heat-treated condition as well.
LM25 has numerous applications including electrical, food, chemical and marine. It is extensively used in the automotive sector where cylinder blocks, wheels, heads and other parts are regularly cast in this aluminium alloy. LM25 offers good machinability.

Selecting the best casting process for your project can be a challenge. Our guide covers the criteria you need to consider…
NovaCast can cast a vast array of both ferrous and non-ferrous alloys using a wide choice of casting processes so we can always advise on the most appropriate combination of alloy and process for each project.
Find out moreCasting capacities at our foundry and those of our partners vary with the type of alloy and the process used. We have set out the main capacities in this table as general guidance but please contact us if your project falls outside of these specifications.
Find out moreThe selection of the most appropriate alloy for a casting can be a complex decision that is further complicated by having to cross reference between different standards in many countries. Our range of alloy data sheets covering the most popular alloys cast by us will provide a solid starting point for discussions.
