Product Description

7075/7475/7050/7B50/7A55 Aerospace Grade Aluminium Plate Sheet For Aircraft

The 7xxx system alloy is an aluminum alloy with Zn as the main alloy element, which is a heat treatment to strengthen the aluminum alloy. The alloy is Mg, Al-Zn-Mg alloy, offering good thermal deformation and a wide quenching range. It achieves high strength under appropriate conditions and maintains good welding performance and corrosion resistance. It is an ideal high-strength weldable aluminum alloy.

Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys are developed by adding Cu to the Al-Zn-Mg base. Known as ultra-high strength aluminum alloys, their yield strength is close to their tensile strength. While they offer a very high strength ratio and easy processing, they are best utilized for load-bearing structures at temperatures below 120ºC.

The 7xxx series includes sheet metal, aluminum plate, medium plate, heavy plate, forgings, and extruded parts. Specifically, 7175 is a special forged alloy, while 7475 is primarily used for thin and thick plates, offering the best damage tolerance in the 7075 series.

Frequently Asked Questions

?What is the primary alloying element in the 7xxx series?
The 7xxx series aluminum alloys primarily use Zinc (Zn) as the main alloying element, which allows for significant strengthening through heat treatment.
?Why is 7075 aluminum preferred for aerospace applications?
It is chosen for its ultra-high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent yield strength, and reliability in critical load-bearing structures like fuselage frames and wing skins.
?What is the difference between 7075 and 7475 alloys?
7475 is developed from the 7075 series but specifically optimized to provide superior damage tolerance, making it ideal for thin and thick plate aircraft applications.
?What are the standard tempers available for these plates?
Common aerospace tempers include T6, T651, T7351, T7651, and T7451, each offering different balances of strength and corrosion resistance.
?What are the typical thickness ranges for aircraft plates?
Standard aerospace aluminum sheets range from 0.5mm to 6.0mm, while heavy plates can range from 6mm up to 250mm depending on the structural requirement.
?Can 7xxx series aluminum be welded?
Yes, 7xxx series alloys generally offer good welding performance and maintain high strength, though specific heat treatment conditions must be followed.
