2014-T6 Aluminum vs. 7075 Aluminum

7075-T6 Aluminum Sheet is primarily used in aerospace industry, often referred to as the Strongest Aluminum grade. Alloy 7075 has the strength of many steels, while retaining aluminum’s lightweight qualities.

1100 aluminum sheet for industrial pure aluminum, aluminum content (mass fraction) of 99%, non heat treatment. It has high corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, low density, good plasticity, and can be used to produce all kinds of aluminum, but the strength is low. Other processes are basically the same as 1050A. 1100 aluminum sheet commonly used to have good machining performance, high corrosion resistance, high strength does not need not see, such as video and chemical handling and storage equipment, sheet metal products, hardware, hollow spinning drawing goods welding key combination, reflector, nameplate

Aluminum is a strong steel that can withstand weight very easily. This property makes it compatible to manufacture wheels for heavy vehicles. So, as to withstand heavy pressure to carry heavy loads by trucks and other vehicles aluminum wheels are most important. Rail systems in Japan and aircraft are also made using aluminum.

Aluminum 2014 is a precipitation hardening alloy with fair corrosion resistance, high electrical conductivity, and good machinability. As one of the strongest aluminum alloys on the commercial market, 2014 Aluminum is heavily used in the manufacture of aircraft and truck parts, as well as in forging applications. 2014 alloy is primarily aluminum based, with copper being the other major element. Standard specifications for 2014 include ASTM B209, UNS A92014 and more.
