Aerospace Aluminum Alloys We Specialize In

• 2024 (T3 / T4 / T351 / T851)

The benchmark alloy for aircraft structural components, offering excellent fatigue resistance and strength-to-weight ratio. Commonly used in tie rods, seat beam tubes, and structural frames.

• 7075 (T6 / T651 / T7351 / T73511)

One of the strongest aluminum alloys available, widely specified for airframe structures, ejector seat components, cable holders, and baggage bar systems.

• 7050 (T7451 / T7651)

Preferred for thick-section aerospace plate and bar where resistance to stress corrosion cracking is critical.

• 2014 (T4 / T6)

Used in high-load applications including engine guide vanes and forging stock.

• 6061 (T6 / T651)

A versatile structural alloy used in hydraulic tubing and general aircraft assemblies.
