Machining parts Metals
Aluminum Alloy Description
Aluminum 6061
Our most popular machined metal. Easily machined and lightweight, perfect for prototypes, military, and aerospace applications.
Aluminum 2024
Used when a high strength-to-weight ratio is required, such as for gears, shafts, and fasteners. It is non-magnetic and heat treatable.
Aluminum 5052
Corrosion-resistant aluminum frequently used in sheet metal applications.
Aluminum 6063
Commonly used outdoors as architectural trim, railings, and door frames, 6063 aluminum has better machining ability than 3003. It is non-magnetic and heat treatable.
Aluminum 7050
Preferred over 7075 aluminum for use in structural applications, 7050 is a high-strength material that resists fatigue and stress cracking. 7050 is non-magnetic and heat treatable.
Aluminum 7075
Harder and higher strength aluminum alloy good for high-stress parts in the aerospace industry.
Aluminum MIC-6
A cast aluminum plate often used for tooling and base plates.
