Decoding Part Material

Unread post by Jonathan Leeper »

I have a model where Material is called out as "PW70:32:C1:0:1:2:Re:8" and Mass Properties shows density as .10lb/in3. How would I figure out what material is referenced?

Yea, your guess is as good as mine.

...yeah, who knows,.. a search on PW70 comes up as a plastic film material or cling wrap,...the remaining could be color and revision?

Cling wrap would be interesting...

Presumably there's no drawing that would shed more light on the matter? Where did the model come from, can you not ask the originator?

Unfortunately, we inherited the model with no drawing. Yes, contractor has been contacted.

I have seen cryptic descriptions like this before, just wondering if anyone had been able to crack the code.
