The strength measurements of 7075 aluminum。The strength measurements of 7075 aluminum metal are as follows: 83,000 psi tensile strength, 48,000 psi shear strength and 73,000 psi shear strength. Due to this metal’s excellent ratio for weight-to-strength, it can be used in applications involving structural parts that are highly stressed. High stress applications that frequently use this grade of aluminum include aircraft fittings, missile parts, regulating valve parts, meter gears, fuse parts, worm gears and keys. It’s a popular choice for use in applications in commercial aircraft components and aerospace and defense equipment. The plastics industry also uses this alloy as a mold material.
This is the reason why 7075 aluminum is frequently in aviation applications.It has excellent weight-to-strength ration, making it ideal for highly stressed parts. When in the annealed condition, forming can be performed, which should be followed by heat treatment. 7075 aluminum is considered to be strong for aluminum. While forming this alloy, it has greater springback. If forming this metal while in the annealed condition becomes difficult, it can be placed in heat between 200 and 250 degrees F to soften it. To make this alloy have high-strength capabilities, heat treating can be used. It also has excellent properties when in low temperatures. The conductivity to electricity of this metal is 36 percent of copper.
The 7075 aluminum sheet is a very strong grade of metal. It is well-known for its toughness, It has excellent weight-to-strength ration, making it ideal for highly stressed parts. The available sizes for the 7075 aluminum sheet are between .25 and 8 inches thick, 48.5 and 60.5 inches wide and up to 144.5 inches long.Alloy 7075 is a cold finished aluminium with the highest strength of all grades of aluminium alloys. It also has moderate corrosion resistance.
Alloy 7075 can be both hard and claer coat anodized.T73 temper offers better stress corrosion cracking resistance than temper T6.Used for Gears, shafts, aircraft aprts, valve parts, low prodsuction plastic mould tools, blow moulds for plastic bottles.T6 temper 0-152.4mm diameterT73 temper 153-310mm diameterT73 temper 500mm square.Stocked Sizes of 7075 aluminium alloy sheet:38.1mm to 310 mm diameter.
