2017A aluminium bars

EN AW 2017A extruded aluminium bar

This alloy has high mechanical properties and excellent resistance to fatigue. During machining, it creates quite long chips, Therefore, it is not well suited for automatic lathes. It can be replaced by 2030 which has the same mechanical properties but has better machinability, allowing higher productivity.

EU Green

According to EU directives: 2000/53/CE (ELV) - 2002/95/CE (RoHS)

Main applications

high structural resistance components for aviation, defence, high resistance components, screws and bolts.
