Aluminium Alloy 2618A DTD 5014A


Technical Data Sheet

Aluminium 2618A is a high strength alloy containing both copper (2%) and magnesium (1.5%), imparting good machinability and a fair resistance to atmospheric attack. Due to its ability to work in higher temperatures applications, 2618A is commonly used for pistons and rotating aircraft parts. Whilst traditionally an aerospace alloy, it has become very popular in the production of motor racing pistons and other critical high technology appliciations.
