- Aviation Grade Aluminum
- The aircraft and aerospace industries have long relied on aviation grade aluminum alloys. The first aircraft would not have been able to fly without the aluminum alloys used in the engines. Whether manufacturing commercial aircraft or building sophisticated space shuttles, aluminum alloys are vital materials. Aluminum alloys are most commonly used in fuselage, wing and support structure construction, offering a range of benefits to aircraft and aerospace engineering.
Haomei Aluminum are available to supply various types of aviation grade aluminum alloy, each with unique properties and compositions to meet specific application needs.
2024 aluminum alloy is mainly composed of copper and is often used to handle high strength-to-weight ratios. 2024 aluminium alloy is most commonly used in wing and fuselage construction due to the high tension requirements of these components.
2014 aluminium is the second most popular aircraft gradfe aluminum sheet alloy in aerospace engineering. This aluminum alloy is strong and durable, the only flaw is that its corrosion resistance is not up to standard. Therefore, 2014 aluminum is usually used for the interior part of the aircraft, not the external structure.
5052 aluminum alloy is the strongest alloy in the non-heat treatable category. This alloy has good flexibility and can be formed into a range of configurations. 5052 aluminium alloy also offers the highest resistance to salt water corrosion when used in marine applications.
6061 aluminum alloy is one of the most commonly used alloys, and it is commonly used in wings and fuselages in the aerospace industry.
Consisting mainly of zinc, 7075 aluminium alloy has been used in various aircraft components since World War II, and the aluminum alloy 7075 has steel-like strength and is easy to machine.
7050, one of the most popular aluminum alloys in the aerospace industry, has higher corrosion resistance than 7075 aluminum and is more durable.
7068 is the strongest aviation grade aluminum alloy in use today, and its combination of high strength and low mass makes this alloy ideal for military applications that require a material that can withstand harsh conditions.
Considering the efficient heat transfer, 1100, 1145 and 3003 are often used to make fins.
