D357.0 is a sand-cast aluminum-copper alloy (2xx series) designed for high-strength aerospace applications requiring good castability and moderate elevated-temperature performance. The T6 temper (solution heat-treated and artificially aged) provides tensile strengths in the 240–280 MPa range with improved dimensional stability compared to as-cast condition, making it suitable for engine blocks, compressor housings, and structural castings in aircraft powerplants.
