Applications

• Closed-die forgings and large forged bars for the aerospace industry.
• This alloy has been specifically designed for structural components subject to high fatigue stress and the risk of corrosion.

Mechanical properties

• This alloy used in the over-aged T74 condition achieves a good balance between mechanical properties (strength, toughness and fatigue) and stress corrosion resistance.
• In the over-aged T76 condition, it is particularly resistant to exfoliation corrosion.
• Its good hardenability makes it suitable for producing thick parts.
