Aluminum 2024 is an aluminum alloy, with copper and magnesium |
as the alloying elements. It is used in applications requiring high |
strength to weight ratio, as well as good fatigue resistance. It is |
not weldable, and has average machinability. Due to poor corrosion |
resistance, it is often clad with aluminium or Al-1Zn for protection, |
although this may reduce the fatigue strength. |
|
2024 is one of the best known of the high strength aluminum alloys. |
With its high strength and excellent fatigue resistance, it is used to |
advantage on structures and parts where good strength-to-weight |
ratio is desired. It is readily machined to a high finish. It is readily |
formed in the annealed condition and may be subsequently heat |
treated. Arc or gas welding is generally not recommended, although |
this alloy may be spot, seam or flash welded. Since corrosion |
resistance is relatively low, 2024 is commonly used with an anodized |
finish or in clad form (Alcald) with a thin surface layer of high purity |
aluminum. |

|
|
(269-276MPa). It has elongation of 10-15%. |
|
|
T351 |
Ultimate tensile strength of at least 57,000 - 62,000 psi (393 - 427 MPa) and yield strength of 40,000 - 41,000 psi |
|
|
(276-282 MPa). It has elongation of 4-12%. |
|
