356.0 is a aluminum-silicon casting alloy (7-9% Si) with copper additions, designed for high-temperature applications requiring good castability and moderate strength. The T6 temper (solution heat-treated and artificially aged) provides improved mechanical properties suitable for aerospace engine components, transmission housings, and other applications requiring strength retention up to approximately 200°C.
