Aerospace Bar
Kaiser Aluminum offers bar products specially tailored for the aerospace and high-strength market. Bar can be created from the following alloy selections:
7X49, 7050, 7075, 7068
Very high mechanical properties (tensile strength) and good machinability. Offers a high resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Typically used in aircraft structural parts.
Very high mechanical properties (tensile strength), high fracture toughness, along with a high resistance to exfoliation and stress corrosion cracking. Typically used in aircraft structural parts.
7075
High mechanical properties and in the T73 or T76 temper, offers improved stress corrosion cracking resistance. Good machinability and typically used in aircraft structural parts.
7068
Highest mechanical properties (tensile strength). Intended for aerospace, ordinance and light weight recreational applications where extremely high strength is required.
