Aluminum alloy 6262 is a heat treatable alloy with very good corrosion resistance and strength. Additions of bismuth and lead help to lubricate the cutting tool giving it excellent machinability and surface finish.
7075 is an aluminum alloy, with zinc as the primary alloying element. It is one of the strongest aluminum alloys comparable to many steels, and has good fatigue strength and average machinability. 7075 was specifically designed for aircraft frames because of its strength somewhat greater than steel while maintaining the light weight of aluminum.
6061-T6511 is a screw machine alloy that has superior corrosion resistance and anodizing features and is one of the most commonly used aluminum alloys due to its numerous characteristics. It is generally selected where welding or brazing is to be performed and is also used extensively in forging applications.
5052 has the highest strength alloy of the non-heat treatable grades and offers high workability, strength, corrosion resistance, and it can be easily welded. It has good resistance to marine atmosphere and salt water corrosion. With excellent workability it can be easily drawn and formed into intricate shapes.
