Aluminium Product

Aluminium Alloy 2014 (2014 A) is a copper based alloy with very high strength together with excellent machining characteristics. Alloy 2014 is commonly used in many aerospace structural applications due to its high strength. Other applications include military vehicles, bridges, weapons manufacture and structural applications.

2014 aluminium alloy (aluminum) is an aluminium-based alloy often used in the aerospace industry.

It is easily machined in certain tempers, and among the strongest available aluminium alloys, as well as having high hardness. However, it is difficult to weld, as it is subject to cracking.

2014 is the second most popular of the 2000-series aluminum alloys, after 2024 aluminum alloy.
It is commonly extruded and forged. The corrosion resistance of this alloy is particularly poor. To combat this, it is often clad with pure aluminum. If unclad 2014 aluminum is to be exposed to the elements, it should be painted as a corrosion protection measure.

2219 aluminium alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminium-copper family (2000 or 2xxx series). It can be heat-treated to produce tempers with higher strength but lower ductility. The aluminium-copper alloys have high strength, but are generally less corrosion resistant and harder to weld than other types of aluminium alloys. To compensate for the lower corrosion resistance, 2219 aluminium can be clad in a commercially pure alloy such as 1050 or painted. This alloy is commonly formed by both extrusion and forging, but is not used in casting.

The 2219 aluminium alloy in particular has high fracture toughness, is weld-able and resistant to stress corrosion cracking, therefore it is widely used in supersonic aircraft skin and structural members. The Space Shuttle Standard Weight Tank was also fabricated from the 2219 alloy.Aluminium Alloy 2219 is a high strength alloy which combines good machinability and good mechanical properties. 2219 is useful over a temperature range of -452°F to 600°F, is readily weldable and has good fracture toughness. In the T8 condition it is resistant to stress corrosion cracking.
Aluminium 2219 is typically used in a range of aerospace applications such as high temperature structural applications including space booster and fuel tanks.

Aluminum 3003 is a commercially pure aluminum with the addition of manganese. 3003 is the most widely used aluminum alloy due to it's excellent characteristics. The addition of manganese increases the strength and 3003 is 20% stronger than 1100 . As with 1100, 3003 has excellent corrosion resistance and workability. It is commonly used in Chemical equipment, Cooking and Kitchen equipment, decorative trim and storage tanks

Aluminum Alloy 4047

Aluminum / aluminum is widely used in several commercial, transportation and building applications. One of the key benefits of this silverfish white metal is its excellent corrosion resistance. Aluminum is also light weight, relatively strong, and has good thermal and electrical conduction.

2024 aluminum is well suited for parts and structures requiring high strength to weight ratios.  It is predominantly used in aerospace, with some power and general industrial applications.  The key alloying element is copper, enhancing strength via response to thermal treatment.  For end use applications subject to aerodynamic heating, 2024 aluminum is suitable at temperatures up to approximately 300°F.  2024 Aluminum has good machining characteristics and high surface finishes are possible.  

Extruded bar is solution heat treated (910°F – 930°F), cold worked, then naturally aged.  Stress relief is provided by stretching a nominal permanent set of 2%.  The effect of cold work and straightening are included in mechanical property limits.  Cold finishing of bar imparts exceptional dimensional uniformity and internal properties.
