Aluminum alloy 7050 has high strength at subzero temperatures. However, their strength can be reduced at high temperatures. 7050 is heat treatable so as to produce mechanical properties of high strength and toughness. It has very good resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Commonly used in the manufacture of aircraft and other structures.
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.
Popularly known as “the aircraft alloy”, 2024 has higher properties than 2011 or 2017 an is largely used for aircraft fittings. It is widely used for all types of threaded fasteners because of its relatively higher shear strength.
6063 an aluminum alloy, with magnesium and silicon as the alloying elements, is the most common alloy used for aluminum extrusion. Heat treatable and weldable, 6063 allows complex shapes to be formed with very smooth surfaces for a variety of exterior and interior architectural applications.
