Alloy Descriptions and Applications
2011 – This free machining alloy compares favorably with free cutting brass. It is the most suitable
alloy for machining on automatics, milling machines, lathes, planers, shapers and other machine tools,
and is the most widely used alloy for all types of screw machine parts. It can be machined at high
speeds and comparatively heavy feeds. Machined surfaces are bright and smooth. Mechanical finishes
readily match joined parts. Mechanical properties and hardness are excellent; corrosion resistance fair.
Weldability by resistance method is fair; other welding is not recommended.
2014 – One of the strongest of heat-treatable alloys, 2014 is used in heavy duty applications. Machinability
is good to excellent when high rakes and clearances, adequate coolant, sharp tools, fast speeds, and
light-to-medium cuts and feeds are employed. Machined surfaces are very smooth. Weldability is good
with arc and resistance methods. Corrosion resistance is fair. This is the most widely used forging alloy.
2017 – Like 2011, this is also a general-purpose alloy for automatic screw machine work. It is
stronger than 2011, but harder to machine and does not have the fine chip associated with 2011. It is
recommended for heavy-duty parts because of its high strength. Workability is fair, with ductility and
formability considered better than 2014. Arc and resistance weldability are satisfactory. Corrosion
resistance is fair. It is used for rivets, fasteners, and aircraft components.
2024 – Known as the “aircraft alloy” in machining rod, this alloy has properties higher than 2017 and
2014. Though formability is generally considered only fair in the cold state, it is one of the most popular
alloys for cold heading and roll threading applications. Can be machined to a high finish. Corrosion
resistance is fair. Applications include Phillips head screws, wood screws, hydraulic fittings and small
parts in clocks and meters. It is also the basic alloy for cold finished rectangular bar where strength
and machinability are essential for precision fittings and parts.

6061 – Generally selected where welding or brazing is required, or for its particularly high corrosion
resistance in all tempers. Formability is excellent in 0 temper, good in T4. Machining is more difficult
than with other machining alloys; it is particularly gummy in 0 condition, fair in hard tempers. Corrosion
resistance and appearance after anodizing are highest of screw machine alloys, though properties are
generally lower. Applications include railway car components, bridge components, pipe fittings, wheels
and various transportation end uses.
6262 – 6262 aluminium alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminium-magnesium-silicon family (6000 or
6xxx series). It is related to 6162 aluminium alloy (Aluminum Association designations that only differ
in the second digit are variations on the same alloy), but sees much more widespread use. It is notably
distinct from 6162, and most other aluminium alloys, in that it contains lead in its alloy composition.
Has excellent machinability, is readily welded, and has good corrosion resistance. Formability is fair in
T6 temper, difficult in T9. Bright, smooth finish is easy to obtain.
7075/7175 – 7075 has been the strongest and hardest alloy sold commercially for decades. 7175 is
more pure, but may not be suitable for fracture toughness applications. The superior stress corrosion
resistance of the T73 and T7351 tempers of 7075 rolled or cold finished rod have made them a logical
replacement for alloys 2014, 2017 and 2024 in many of the most critical applications. In machined
parts and forgings it is used primarily in aircraft, ordnance, highly stressed structural applications,
keys, small gears, etc. It is more difficult to forge than other alloys, but is often selected because of its
properties. Machinability is good, resistance welding satisfactory, finishing characteristics excellent,
and corrosion resistance fair.

• Flat Bar • Square Tubing

2024 – Used principally for structural members in aircraft construction for high-strength
tube. Similar to 2014 in behavior and strength. Can be spot welded.
6061 – Transportation, structural pipe, furniture applications. Most versatile of heat-treatable

group. Will take considerable forming in T4 temper. Good resistance to corrosion. Widely
used for structural tube, handrails and baggage racks where moderate strength is required.
6063 – Has best all-around extruding properties. Can be used for comparatively intricate
sections; excellent for hollow extrusions and architectural applications. Takes a good surface
finish, is corrosion resistant and can be anodized. Its strength, as extruded, is somewhat
higher than that of 3003. It can be precipitation heat-treated to strengths just under 6061
alloy. In tube form it is used for irrigation pipe, furniture, electrical conduit, and handrails.
6262 – High machinability and finishability with good chip-forming characteristics; substitute
for 2011 in some applications; strength same as 6061.
7075 – Used for aircraft structural members when extra strength is required. Can be
formed by regular methods but requires more care and precision. Can be spot welded but
not fusion welded.

ASTM-B221
6042 and 6064 are Rohs compliant extruded 6000 series alloys.
6042 and 6064 are controlled lead alloys that offer improved machinability ratings over
6061 as well as good corrosion resistance. Both have similar machinability characteristics
when compared to 6262, but are Rohs and IMDS/ELV compliant and can be used in place
of 6262 extruded products.

Aluminum Structural Shapes

Selection Guide
Aluminum Structural Shapes are available in a variety of cross sections to meet your needs.
As noted in each of the following sections, you will find each structural product is stocked
in one of the following shapes:
American Standard - Similar in cross section to

rolled steel angles, channels and beams with traditional
tapered flanges and rounded ends.
Aluminum Association - The new design with

flanges that are straight instead of tapered and thicker
than the web. This results in easier joining and improved
section properties.
Sharp Corner - Flanges and webs are uniformly

thick and all corners are sharp, with nearly invisible radii.
We can also special order the cross section, size and alloy you may desire for your application.

mum distance between the bottom surface of the extruded tube and the fl at surface. From this measurement, the actual devia-
tion from straightness of the extruded tube at that point is subtracted. The remainder is the twist. To convert the standard twist
tolerance (degrees) to an equivalent linear value, the sine of the standard tolerance is multiplied by the width of the surface of the
section that is on the flat surface. The following values are used to convert angular tolerances to linear deviation:

Sheet and Plate Products
1100 – This low-strength alloy has excellent corrosion resistance, satisfactory anodizing and conversion
coating finishing characteristics, and is unmatched by any other commercial aluminum alloy in workability.
It lends itself readily to welding, brazing, and soldering, but tends toward gumminess when machined.
Typical end uses are spun holloware, fin stock, chemical storage and processing equipment, kitchen
utensil items, and general sheet metal work.
3003 – About 20% higher in strength than 1100 but retaining an excellent workability rating. May
show some slight discoloration when anodized, but reacts well to mechanical and organic finishings. Is
easily welded and brazed, but soldering is limited to the torch method. Like 1100, tends to be gummy
when machined, but will perform somewhat satisfactorily in the higher tempers with the proper set-up
and maximum speeds. Typical end uses include food and chemical handling equipment, appliance
components, truck/trailer roofing, heat exchangers, pipe jacketing, and lawn furniture components.
5052 – For many years, until the advent of 5083 and 5086, this alloy was the highest strength non-
heat-treatable alloy commercially available. Although easily welded, it is not recommended for brazing
and soldering applications. Excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine applications. Adapts
to most mechanical and finishing processes although the heavier anodic films may take on a yellowish
cast. Fair machining with the proper set-up. Typical end uses include fuel tanks, truck/trailer side panels,
small boat hulls, truck cabs, bumpers, storage tanks, and pressure vessels.
5083 – With excellent corrosion resistance and weldability together with high strength, this alloy was
designed for welded structures requiring maximum joint strength and efficiency. Can be anodized for
increased corrosion resistance, but does not lend itself to decorative applications. Not meant to be a
machining alloy, but can be machined fairly well with proper preparation. Because of its relatively high
magnesium content, the workability rating is fair. Typical end uses are large marine craft, containers,
railroad cars, structurals, and elevator cars.
5086 – Sister alloy to 5083 with comparable characteristics but slightly less strength.
2024 – Thought of as the "aircraft alloy" because of its strength, 2024 has only fair corrosion resistance
but good machinability. Lends itself only to resistance welding as a hot joining process and is not
recommended for brazing or soldering. In the annealed state, 2024 has good workability but is only
fair to poor in tempers. Typical end uses are aircraft skins and cowls and truck and aircraft structurals.
6061 – This is a popular general-purpose alloy. Very good corrosion resistance and finishability plus
excellent weldability and a strength level approximating that of mild steel. Machinability is good and,
in the annealed state, its workability carries a high rating, staying at the “good” level if heat-treated
without aging. Typical end uses are aircraft landing mats, large and small marine vessels, structural
architectural parts, storage tanks, and highway signs.
7075 – One of the highest strength, commercially available alloys with fair corrosion resistance and
machinability. Low workability rating and welded only by the resistance process. Typically used as
aircraft skins, cowls, and structures.

Notes: The above standards are those published by the Aluminum Association, Aluminum
Standards & Data 2009.
(1) When a dimension tolerance is specified other than as an equal bilateral tolerance, the value
of the s tandard tolerance is that which applies to the mean of the maximum and minimum
dimensions permissible under the tolerance for the dimension under consideration.
(2) Tolerances applicable at ambient mill temperatures. A change in dimension of 0.013 in. per
10oF must be recognized.
(3) If specified width is other than an exact multiple of 12", tolerance is determined by using the
next largest exact multiple. For example, if specified width is 53" and specified length is 72",
the tolerance is 5/64" x 5 = 25/64". This result is then rounded to 7/16" in accordance with
footnote (4).
(4) Use values for calculating only. Round result upward to nearest 1/16".
(5) Also applicable to any 240-inch increment of longer sheet or plate.

Aluminum Products
Alloy Designation System
A system for designating wrought aluminum and wrought aluminum alloys established by the Aluminum
Association. Specific limits for chemical compositions to which conformance is required are provided
by applicable product standards.
Wrought Aluminum and Aluminum Alloy

Designation System
A system of four-digit numerical designations is used to identify wrought aluminum and wrought aluminum
alloys. The first digit indicates the alloy group as follows:
Aluminum, 99.00% minimum and greater................1XXX

Aluminum alloys grouped by major alloying elements:
Copper (Cu).............................................................2XXX
Manganese (Mn)......................................................3XXX
Silicon (Si)................................................................4XXX
Magnesium (Mg)......................................................5XXX
Magnesium and Silicon (Mg and Si)........................6XXX
Zinc (Zn)...................................................................7XXX
Other element..........................................................8XXX
Unused series..........................................................9XXX
Aluminum
In the 1XXX group for minimum aluminum purities of 99.00% and greater, the last two of the four digits
in the designation indicate the minimum aluminum percentage. These digits are the same as the last
two digits to the right of the decimal point in the minimum aluminum percentage when it is expressed
to the nearest 0.01%. The second digit in the designation indicates unalloyed aluminum having natural
impurity limits; integers 1 through 9, which are assigned consecutively as needed, indicate special
control of one or more individual impurities or alloying elements.
Aluminum Alloys
In the 2XXX through 8XXX alloy groups the last two of the four digits in the designation have no special
significance but serve only to identify the different aluminum alloys in the group. The second digit in the
alloy designation indicates alloy modifications. If the second digit is zero, it indicates the original alloy;
integers 1 through 9, which are assigned consecutively, indicate alloy modifications.

Temper Designation System
The Aluminum Association’s established temper designation system is used for all forms of wrought
and cast aluminum and aluminum alloys except ingot. It is based on the sequence of basic treatments
used to produce various tempers. The temper designation follows the alloy designation with the two
separated by a hyphen. Basic designations consist of a letter while the subdivisions of those basic
tempers, where required, are indicated by one or more digits following those letters. The system is
designed to set down specific sequences of fabrication processes, but only those operations that are
recognized as significantly influencing the characteristics of the product are involved. Should some
other variation of the same sequence of basic operations be applied to the same alloy, resulting in
different characteristics, then additional digits will be added to the numerical designation.
Basic Temper Designations
F
as fabricated. Denotes metal that has been fabricated to ordered
dimensions without any attempt on the part of the producer to control
the results of either strain-hardening operations or thermal treatments.
There are no mechanical property limits and the strength levels may
vary from lot to lot and from shipment to shipment.
O
annealed. Applies to wrought products that have undergone a thermal
treatment to reduce their mechanical property levels to their minimums.
Often described as "dead soft" metal.
W
solution heat-treated. An unstable temper applying to certain heat-treatable
alloys that, after heat treatment, spontaneously age harden at room temperature.
Only when the period of natural aging is indicated (W 1 hr for example) is this
a specific and complete designation.
H
strain-hardened. Applies to those wrought products which have had
an increase in strength by reduction through strain-hardening, or cold-
working, operations. The “H” is always followed by two or more digits.
T
thermally treated to produce tempers other than F, O or H.
Applies to those products which have had an increase in strength due
to thermal treatments, with or without supplementary strain-hardening
operations. The “T” is always followed by one or more digits.

Subdivisions of Basic Tempers
Subdivision of "H" Temper-Non-Heat-Treatable Alloys
H1

strain-hardened only. Applies to products which are strain-hardened or cold worked to
obtain the desired strength level without supplementary thermal treatments. The number
following this designation indicates the degree of strain-hardening.
H2

strain-hardened and partially annealed. Applies to products strain-hardened or cold
worked more than the desired final amount and then reduced in strength to that desired
level by partial annealing. The number following this designation indicates the degree of
strain- hardening remaining after the partial annealing operation.
H3

strain-hardened and stabilized. Applies to products in the magnesium-aluminum class
which will age-soften at room temperature after strain-hardening. These products are strain-
hardened to the desired amount and then subjected to a low temperature thermal operation
which results in a stable but slightly lower tensile strength and improved ductility. The
number following this designation indicates the degree of strain-hardening remaining after
the stabilization treatment.
The digit following the designation H1, H2 or H3 indicates the

degree of strain-hardening as follows:
H_1 1/8 hard
H_2 1/4 hard
H_3 3/8 hard
H_4 1/2 hard
H_5 5/8 hard
H_6 3/4 hard
H_7 7/8 hard
H_8 full hard (approximately 75% reduction after a full anneal)
H_9 extra hard (limited to certain alloys and/or product forms)
The third digit, when used, indicates a variation of the two-digit temper.
It is used when the degree of control of temper or the mechanical properties are different from but
close to the two-digit designation to which it is added, or when some other characteristic is significantly
affected.
The following three-digit H temper designations have been assigned for wrought products in all alloys:
H_11 Applies to products which incur such sufficient strain hardening the
after final anneal that they fail to qualify as annealed but not enough to
qualify as H-1.
H_12 Applies to products which may acquire some temper from working at
an elevated temperature and for which there are mechanical property limits.

(1) Ratings A through E are relative ratings in decreasing order of merit, based on exposures
to sodium chloride solution by intermittent spraying or immersion. Alloys with A and B ratings
can be used in industrial and seacoast atmospheres without protection. Alloys with C, D and
E ratings generally should be protected at least on faying surfaces.

(2) Stress-corrosion cracking ratings are based on service experience and on laboratory tests of
specimens exposed to the 3.5% sodium chloride alternate immersion test.
A = No known instance of failure in service or in laboratory tests.

B = No known instance of failure in service; limited failures in laboratory tests of short
transverse specimens.
C = Service failures with sustained tension stress acting in short transverse direction relative
to grain structure; limited failures in laboratory tests of long transverse specimens.
D = Limited service failures with sustained longitudinal or long transverse
areas.

(3) In relatively thick sections the rating would be E.
(4) This rating may be different for material held at elevated temperature for long periods.
(5) Ratings A through D for Workability (cold), and A through E for Machinability, are relative
ratings in decreasing order of merit.
(6) Ratings A through D for Weldability and Brazeability are relative ratings defined as follows:
A = Generally weldable by all commercial procedures and methods.
B = Weldable with special techniques or for specific applications that justify
preliminary trials or testing to develop welding procedure and weld
performance.
C = Limited weldability because of crack sensitivity or loss in resistance to
corrosion and mechanical properties.
D = No commonly used welding methods have been developed.
(7) T74 type tempers, although not previously registered, have appeared in various literature and
specifications as T736 type tempers.
