2024 Aluminum Sheet

Aluminum sheets Thickness:0.03-100MM Width:200-2000MM Temper:O/F/H22/H24/H16/H18/H12/H14/H112 Standard:GB 3880/EN 485 2024 Aluminum Sheet Alloy 2024 was introduced as an alclad sheet in the T3 temper. It was the first Al-Cu-Mg alloy to have a yield strength approaching 50,000-psi and generally replaced 2017-T4 (Duralumin) as the predominant 2XXX series aircraft alloy. With its relatively good fatigue resistance, especially in thick plate forms, alloy 2024 continues to be specified for many aerospace structural applications. 2024 variant alloys, such as higher purity 2124 and 2324, with improvements in strength and other specific characteristics, have also found application in critical aircraft structures. An improved sheet alloy for fuselage applications was introduced in 1991. Alclad C188 offers improved fracture toughness and fatigue crack growth while maintaining the strength characteristics of 2024. It is considered as the "aircraft" alloy because of its strength. Good machinability but only fair corrosion resistance. Heat treatable. Not recommended for brazing or soldering. Good workability. Good appearance.
