Features of 2017 aluminum alloy tube
2017 is a typical hard aluminum alloy in the aluminum-copper-magnesium series, with reasonable composition and good overall performance. Many countries produce this alloy, which is used in duralumin. The characteristics of the alloy are: high strength, some heat resistance, can be used as working parts below 150 °C. The temperature is higher than 125°C, and the strength of the 2017 alloy is higher than that of the 7075 alloy. The forming performance is better in the hot state, annealing and new quenching state, and the heat treatment strengthens the effect, but the heat treatment process is strict. The corrosion resistance is poor, but it can be effectively protected by covering with pure aluminum; it is easy to produce cracks during welding, but it can be welded or riveted by special technology. It is widely used in aircraft structures, rivets, truck wheels, propeller components and various other structural parts.
2017 uses of aluminum alloy
2017 aluminum tubes are usually used in rivets, general machinery parts, aircraft, ships, transportation, building structural parts, transportation tool structural parts, propeller components and accessories, etc.
