What is Aluminium 2017 Sheet & Plate?

Aluminium 2017 is a high-strength, copper-magnesium-manganese alloy belonging to the 2000 series (often referred to in commercial applications as "duralumin"). It is a heat-treatable alloy renowned for offering an optimal combination of high mechanical strength, excellent hardness, and superior machinability compared to other structural grades. While its natural corrosion resistance is lower than non-heat-treatable alloys, its superior structural performance makes it a premier choice for heavily stressed components.

• Superior Machinability: Reacts exceptionally well to high-speed machining, turning, and drilling operations, producing clean chips and excellent surface finishes.
• High Mechanical Strength: Delivers impressive tensile and yield strengths suitable for demanding load-bearing frameworks and structural assemblies.
• Heat Treatable: Capable of achieving high mechanical properties through thermal treatment (such as T4 tempers).
• Good Fatigue Resistance: Withstands cyclical mechanical stresses and vibrations encountered in heavy-duty mechanical environments.
