Due to light weight, high strength to weight ratio, good corrosion resistance and ease of fabrication to various forms Aluminum alloys are widely found in aircrafts, ships, and land military equipment. Aluminum is also the 2nd best electrical conductive after Copper.
Aluminum is classified in 4 digit numbers like 1xxx, 2xxx, ….7xxx to 9xxx, and with various tempers like A temper, H temper, T temper.
In aircrafts, the most common Aluminum alloys that are used in aircraft construction are 2024-T4 and 6061-T6,
Aluminum is usually supplied as Sheets, strips, foils, bars, tubes, extrusion according to ISO, MIL-STDS, AMS, and other standards.
Application:
• Airframes of 2xxx, 6xxx, 7xxx and other Aluminum series
• Armor plates of 5xxx and 7xxx series
• Light arms parts and accessories.
• Mass produced ammunition items.
• Missiles items.
