Using aluminum in aircraft construction

Are you interested in the use of aluminum in aircraft construction? The supplier Evek GmbH offers a wide range of aluminum at an affordable price. We provide delivery of products to any point on the continent. Optimal price.

World aircraft industry

The widespread use of aluminium parts in the manufacture of aircraft is due to its ample occurrence in nature (approx. 8%) and its optimal combination of chemical, physical and mechanical parameters. The supplier Evek GmbH offers to buy any aluminum alloy at an affordable price in a wide range. We provide product delivery anywhere in the continent. The price is optimal.

Relevance of rolled aluminum

Any aluminum alloy has a low density (2700 kg/m3), relatively high strength, good electrical and thermal conductivity, manufacturability and plasticity, corrosion resistance in chemically aggressive environments. It allows for the active use of aluminum for the manufacture of a wide variety of aircraft parts.

Series of Aluminum Alloys

There are four series of aluminum alloys used in aircraft construction: 2xxx, Zxxx, 5xxx, 6xxx and 7xxx. The 2xxx series with higher fracture toughness is designed for use at relatively low operating temperatures. The Zxxx, 5xxx and 6xxx series are used in the oil, pneumatic and hydraulic systems of air transport. The alloys used in the 7xxx series are used for parts that operate at low temperatures, as well as at a constant risk of corrosion and maximum loads.

Aviation Industry

High-strength heat-treated aluminum alloys containing zinc, magnesium, manganese and copper are predominantly used in aircraft parts production, along with alloys of lower strength and hardness (besides aluminum, they contain magnesium and zinc). They are used to make the skin and internal set of structural elements of an airplane airframe, which usually include the fuselage, wing, keel, etc.

Magnalloys

A number of alloys that have good weldability are used in the manufacture of composite type fuselages. Such alloys include magnalloys - alloys of aluminum with magnesium and manganese (АМг5, АМг6). When manufacturing seaplanes, it is impossible to do without corrosion-resistant aluminum grades of 1915, B92, 1420 types. Recently, aluminum alloys with lithium in their chemical composition have been developed and begin to be actively used. This metal increases the cryogenic resistance of materials.
