Aluminium Bars

Aluminium bars are a forged product generally produced by extrusion. They are semi-finished products mainly used in machining processes to obtain all types of parts for a wide range of industrial sectors.

Main alloys

The end use of the product to be made from the bars will determine the appropriate alloy to be used.

The usual commercial alloy with the best machining properties. Its higher percentage of lead and bismuth favour this property. Its resistance to corrosion is low.

Equivalent alloys in practice. Its machining behaviour is significantly worse than that of 2011.

Less machinable than 2011. However, it has better mechanical characteristics than the latter.

Similar to the 2017 but with a North American influence. It is less productive, but has higher mechanical characteristics. Its main applications are aeronautical or defence components.

Alloy with high mechanical properties mainly used in the aeronautical sector.

An alloy commonly used in flat semi-finished products, it can also be found in bars with applications in the naval sector thanks to its good weldability and corrosion resistance.

Alloys with very similar characteristics. 6082 is mainly used in the European market and 6061 in the American market. It is a versatile alloy, although it does not have the ease of machining of the 2000 series alloys.

It is a variant of the 6061 alloy with Lead and Bismuth that favours machining.

Alternative to alloy 6262 with limits of lead in the composition within the current regulations. It has similar mechanical characteristics to 2011 but with better corrosion behaviour.

Very similar to 6026. Mainly used in the automotive sector.

Commercially, it is one of the alloys with the best mechanical characteristics. With low productivity, its main applications are in the aeronautical and defence sectors.

Calibrated or extruded quality

One of the main differentiating characteristics of this type of product is its supply quality, which can be calibrated or extruded depending on the final dimensional tolerances. Calibrated bars have dimensions that are closer to their nominal size and are ideal for products whose final size coincides with the initial size. In those parts where it is necessary to completely machine the bar, the extruded quality will be sufficient.

Chamfered sides

To facilitate the use of the bars in machines with automatic feeders, they should have a bevel on one or both sides, as the case may be. Please ask us about the stock of bevelled bars or the possibility of having them available.

Machined chips

The demonstration of the ease of machining of an alloy can be found in the chips produced during the machining process. A small, fine chip is proof of simple and fast machining, whereas a large chip is counterproductive. The following are examples of the chips that make up various common alloys.

Aluminium sheets

Alloys

1050


The alloys of the 1XXX series are characterised by very good corrosion resistance as well as good formability due to their lower mechanical properties.

2017


This alloy of the 2XXX series has a high mechanical strength as well as very good machinability due to its copper content. On the other hand, this element means that it does not have a high resistance to corrosion.

2024


Alloy of the 2XXX series with copper as the main alloying element. Very similar to the 2017 alloy, it has slightly higher mechanical characteristics. Not recommended for decorative anodising. Its main applications are in the field of aeronautics and defence.

3003


Manganese alloy mainly indicated for rolled semi-finished products especially suitable for drawing and forming. It does not maintain a good uniformity in anodised finish, so lacquering is more advisable. It has a great power of heat dissipation. Its main applications would be corrugated sheets for roofs and facades and corrugated bands for pipes, tanks and all types of roofs.

5005


Alloy of the 5XXX series with magnesium as the main alloying element. It has high corrosion resistance and is good for bending and welding. It is a suitable alloy for decorative anodising.

5052


Commercial alloy in the USA. Medium mechanical strength, high corrosion resistance especially for use in shipbuilding, easy forming and good weldability. This alloy may suffer from intercrystalline cracking and stress corrosion cracking after inadequate heat treatment (welding). Do not use above 65º if it is to be exposed to aggressive environments.

5083


Alloy with excellent corrosion behaviour with excellent mechanical properties and weldability. In the H321 state the resistance to intergranular corrosion is improved and in the H34 state the hardness is higher. This makes the products in these states ideal for marine and transport applications respectively.

5086


Structures and equipment: shipbuilding (welded components), masts, platforms. Chemical apparatus and storage tanks, cryogenics, piping and tubing. Automotive: welded tank trailers and welded rear hoppers. Railway: Sodulated tanks and structural components. Machinery: structures, apparatus, tools. Building and road construction, poles, towers, scaffolding. Transport: welded and welded storage tanks on cars.

5754


Alloy with excellent general corrosion behaviour and good cold formability with significantly lower mechanical properties than alloy 5083.

6082


Alloy possessing high mechanical properties and good corrosion resistance. It also has a good response to welding, although there is a loss of mechanical characteristics in the welded area, and it can be anodised without problems, provided that an aesthetic finish is not sought.

7075


It is one of the alloys with the highest mechanical characteristics and high fatigue strength. Its corrosion behaviour is not good, so protective anodising of the finished parts is recommended. Its main uses are in the field of aeronautics, defence, structural components as well as all types of components that require high resistance with low weight.
