Performance of 7050 Aluminum Plate
Performance Indicator | Description |
Formability | 7050 aluminum alloy is easy to form in the O condition or after heat treatment. It is suitable for machining complex shapes, and it is recommended to perform appropriate pre-treatment and heat treatment before forming. |
Welding | Welding 7050 aluminum alloy is challenging. Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) and Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding often lead to welding cracks and porosity, with weld joint strength lower than the base material. Welding should be avoided if possible; consult the alloy supplier if necessary. |
Heat Treatment | Solution heat treatment is performed at 890°F (approximately 476°C). The treatment time depends on the material section thickness and should follow the recommendations of the alloy manufacturer. |
Forging | 7050 aluminum alloy can be forged. |
Hot Working | 7050 aluminum alloy can be hot worked. |
Cold Working | 7050 aluminum alloy can be cold worked using standard methods, but it is recommended to use larger bending radii to prevent cracking and defects. |
