This achievement indicates Inalco Metal's commitment to quality, compliance, and best practices in manufacturing processes. The audit proceeded with rigorous validation to confirm that the company complied with the BIS standards and that its products were safe, reliable, and performed to the best industry standards. We extend our congratulations to the Inalco Metal team, who have been able to record this outstanding achievement. We count it an honour to have assisted them in their line of duty. Hence, we remain a team, setting benchmarks in quality and compliance!
Specification for Wrought Aluminium and its Alloys – Chequered/Tread Sheets as per IS 14712
IS 14712 deals with the requirements for hot-rolled wrought aluminium and its alloys chequered or tread sheets used in general engineering. These sheets can be found in many industries because of their increased durability, relatively lightweight, and corrosion resistance, making them perfect for places that need a combination of functional and decorative features.
This standard covers the scope of grades of aluminium alloys concerning specific mechanical and chemical properties fit for multiple uses. The chequered sheets have been designed to have remarkable anti-slip characteristics, a reason why they endure much popularity in flooring, stair treads, pathways, and vehicles for transit.
Thus, compliance with IS 14712 helps manufacturers provide chequered aluminium sheets with mechanical and metallurgical standards suitable for engineering applications in terms of safety, reliability, and performance.
Key parameters defined in IS 14712 include:
- Chemical Composition: Limits on impurities and alloying elements to maintain material consistency.
- Mechanical Properties: Tensile strength, elongation, and hardness, ensuring the sheets can withstand engineering stresses.
- Dimensional Tolerances: Precise control over thickness, width, and length for uniformity and accuracy.
- Surface Quality: Specifications for a clean, uniform surface free from defects like cracks or dents.
