Alclad Aluminum Sheet

It is a sandwich of high strength aluminum alloy between two sheets of commercially pure metal for a combination of strength and corrosion resistance produced by rolling.

Alclad aluminum sheet.

It is readily machined to a high finish. Aircraft quality 2024 t3 aluminum sheet is thought of as the aircraft alloy because of its strength. No guarantee against scratches is possible due to the handling required to cut sheets to sizes shown. With its high strength and excellent fatigue resistance it is used to advantage on structures and parts where good strength to weight ratio is desired.

Alclad is a superior corrosion resistant alloy compared to present day alloys and meets astm standard b209. The trade name of this aluminum laminate as originated by the aluminum company of america is alcad. It has a melting point of about 500 degrees celsius or 932 degrees fahrenheit. Hadco metal trading is a distributor and supplier of aircraft aluminum for the aviation industry.

Aluminum alloy sheet is sold in the thicknesses and sheet sizes shown in the table. 2024 is one of the best known of the high strength aluminum alloys. Alclad is a duplex metal product made by cladding an aluminum alloy core with surface layers of pure aluminum or aluminum alloy resulting in increased resistance to corrosion. Cutting charges range from 20 to 50 or more depending on sizes desired and number of cuts.

Charge is higher if more than 5 items. We can cut standard sheet sizes shown in the table to special sizes but special order cutting charges will apply. Order by part number. If mfg test reports are required there is a minimum 15 00 charge per order.

Rpr products insul mate aluminum alclad sheet and jacketing is formed from a high purity 7072 alloy surface layers metallurgically bonded to a high strength 3004 alloy core aluminum. From this trade name the adjective clad and the verb cladding have been derived. Alclad aluminum sheet is a late game component used for building mk 5 conveyor belts and lifts among other things. It is readily formed in the annealed condition and may be subsequently heat treated.

705t6 alclad aluminum is available in a variety of sizes. An extremely thin sheet of pure aluminum laminated onto each side of an aluminum alloy sheet improves the corrosion resistance with little impairment of strength. 2024t3 aluminum sheet has excellent fatigue resistance.
