Since corrosion resistance is relatively low aluminum alloy 2024 is commonly used with an anodized finish or in clad form alclad with a thin surface layer of high purity aluminum.
Aluminium alloy sheet 2024.
Aluminum alloy 2024 2024a is available in bar flat round hexagon square sheet plate strip wire rod shapes and tube.
Aluminum alloy 2024 general description.
Alclad is a metallurgically bonded aluminum or aluminum alloy coating that is anodic to the core thus electrolytically protecting the core against corrosion.
Tensile strength 70 000 psi yield strength 50 000 psi.
2024 aluminum sheets possess good machinability and can be machined to a high finish.

It is used in applications requiring high strength to weight ratio as well as good fatigue resistance.
It is readily formed in the annealed condition and may be subsequently heat treated.
High strength 2024 aluminum sheets and bars while 2024 aluminum was initially designed for structural components in aircraft it s now widely used when a high strength to weight ratio is needed such as for gears shafts and fasteners.
2024 aluminum coils and sheets are considered the aircraft alloy because of its strength.
2024t3 sheet has same characteristics as tubing however the sheet is alclad for corrosion resistance.
2024 is heat treatable aluminum alloy with copper as the primary alloying element.
