| Product Description | |
|
2024 is heavily utilized in aircraft applications because it has good machining characteristics and higher strength than either 2014 and 2017. Though cold formability is considered fair, it is one of the most popular alloys for cold heading and thread rolling applications as a result of the superior grain structure that can be obtained. Corrosion resistance and anodizeablilty are only fair. It is also the basic alloy for cold fi nished square and rectangular bar. Again, this is because of its high strength and good machinability, which are essential for precision fi ttings and parts.
