Al: 1.5-10.0% FIG. 1 shows the results of examining the effect of Al content on the tensile properties of magnesium alloys with RE content of 0.9-1.2%. In addition, FIG. 2 shows that the Al content that affects the heat-resistant fatigue resistance in the bolt fastening portion of the magnesium alloy having RE contents of 0%, 1.0%, and 2.0% at high temperature (100 ° C.). Fig. 5 shows the results of examining the influence of the above by measuring the axial force reduction rate according to the procedure shown in Figs. 5 (A) and 5 (B) adopted in later examples. When the amount is around 4.0%, the heat settling (axial force reduction rate) of the bolt fastening part is minimum, but as shown in Fig. 1, the Al content is about 6% and the tensile strength is maximum, When it is less than 6%, the tensile strength decreases and it becomes 4.0%.
If it is less than 1.5%, it becomes unpractical.

Then, when the Al content is increased,
Tensile strength tends to increase up to about 6%, 10.0%
Although the proof stress increases, the tensile strength rather decreases. Further, this tendency was confirmed in the range where the RE content was 2.5% or less. Therefore, for this reason,
The Al content is 1.5 to 10.0%, more preferably 2.
It is preferable to set it in the range of 0 to 8.0%.

RE (total of one or more selected from rare earth elements): 2.5% or less RE is more in the pressurizing portion such as a bolt fastening portion at high temperature as the addition amount is increased. It was confirmed that the effect of improving the heat settling property is great. Then, in order to disperse and generate the Ce compound which is considered to contribute to the improvement of the heat resistance settling property in the pressurizing portion such as the bolt fastening portion when it is contained at 2.0% or more, solidification by rapid cooling such as die casting is performed. It is necessary to use a morphological casting method. Of course, in the present invention, it is possible to use die casting, so the RE content is set to 2.5% or less.

Therefore, the RE content is preferably 2.0% or less, and optimally about 1.0%. Further, when the content is 2.0% or more, the yield becomes poor, and addition of a large amount of RE ultimately increases the cost, but R
It has been confirmed that even if a small amount or a small amount of Ca is added after adding E in an amount of 2.0% or more, the effect of improving the heat resistance settling property in the pressurizing portion such as the bolt fastening portion at high temperature is improved.
For this reason, the RE content is 2.5% or less,
It is more preferable to set it in the range of 0.5 to 2.0%.

Ca: 0.2-5.5% FIG. 3 shows the results of examining the effect of Ca content on the tensile properties of magnesium alloys with RE content of 0.9-1.2%. In addition, FIG. 4 shows that the high temperature (1
The effect of the Ca content on the heat settling resistance of the bolt fastening part at 00 ° C) was adopted in the subsequent examples.
The results obtained by measuring the axial force reduction rate in the manner shown in (A) and (B) are shown. As shown in FIG. 4, even when a small amount of Ca is added, bolts at high temperature are shown. Although the heat resistance of the fastening portion is improved, if it is less than 0.2%, the characteristics are not improved so much. When the Ca content is further increased, the heat-resistant fatigue resistance of the bolted portion at high temperature is further improved, showing the most improved property at 0.50 to 0.75%, and exceeding 6% exceeds 6%. %, The effect is exhibited, but as shown in FIG. 3, if it exceeds 5.5%, the toughness (elongation) becomes inferior, and casting cracks also occur during casting, which is not practical. Further, this tendency was confirmed in the range where the RE content was 2.5% or less. Therefore, for such a reason, the Ca content is preferably in the range of 0.2 to 5.5%, more preferably 0.2 to 4.0%.

The effect is exhibited in the case of composite addition or single addition in the range of%, but the effect is lost if it exceeds 2.5%, so the range of 0.2 to 2.5% is preferable. Also,

5% or less, Ca: 0.2 to 5.5%, and in some cases, one or two of Cu and Zn: 0.2 to
Since it has a composition of 2.5% and the balance Mg and impurities, it includes not only the case of solidification by rapid cooling such as die casting but also the case of not taking such solidification by rapid cooling. Therefore, no matter what cooling method is used, the resistance to sag in the pressure parts such as the bolt fastening parts, especially the heat resistance in the pressure parts such as the bolt fastening parts at high temperatures. It is possible to make it easy to loosen, and it is possible to maintain a good fastening state by fastening means such as bolts for a long period of time, which brings about a remarkable effect.
