Aluminum 7010 Sheet, Bar, and Plate
Aluminum 7010 Sheet is hardened by an aging heat treatment or by controlled cold working from the solution annealed condition. Welding heat input affects the corrosion resistance of Aluminum 7010 Sheet in an adverse manner. Aluminum 7010 Sheet heat treatment is done at 1000 F followed by a cold water quench. Hot forging may be done providing the finished product is given the aging heat treatment to restore corrosion resistance. Aluminum 7010 Sheet may be readily formed by conventional methods. Thus any welding should be followed by a repeat heat treatment to restore corrosion resistance.
Aluminum 7010 Bar
The machining characteristics of Aluminum 7010 Bar are fair in the heat treated condition, which is the condition in which most machining is done. Aluminum 7010 Bar is an age hardening, high strength aluminum alloy. Aluminum 7010 Bar is useful for optimum strength to weight ratio structures. Aluminum 7010 Bar is formed by conventional methods. Aluminum 7010 Bar is used in many applications. It is commonly used in the manufacture of truck wheels, aircraft structures, and screw machine products, scientific instruments, veterinary and orthopedic braces and equipment, and in rivets.
Aluminum 7010 Plate
In general, Aluminum 7010 Plate principle elements are a flat web area and integral or mechanically attached flanges or caps. There are a large number of light sheet metal components in the airframe. The components are made primarily from Aluminum 7010. They are typically either sheet metal stampings or simple riveted assemblies. There are many structure shapes and sizes among those Aluminum 7010 Plate components. Aluminum 7010 Plate components such as ribs, formers, and intercostals are of secondary structural importance and are generally lightly loaded in use.
