    ADC12 - an alloy that's made up of Si,Cu,Mg,Zn,Mn,Fe,Ni,&Sn for metal work such as the creation of intake manifolds and engine blocks.
    AC4C - an alloy that's made for use in weaving(so electrical wire possibly?)
    LM6 - an alloy also used for weaving.
    LM24 - an alloy that's made up of Si,Fe,Mg,Mn,Ni,Zn,Sn,Ti,& Pb. Wasn't able to find out what it's used in.

    Hope that helps, found it on trade-metal.com since I don't think SMF has an aluminum grading table anywhere.

    Good work on the applications. These are very specific Ingots. Your ADC12 would be used by MOST Aluminum possibly
