2124 aluminum alloy

It is a variant of the 2024 alloy but with stricter control over impurities (e.g., iron and silicon) to enhance fracture toughness and fatigue resistance. Its properties make it ideal for critical structural components under high stress.

Descriptions

1. Chemical Composition

The chemical composition of 2124 aluminum alloy adheres to aerospace standards such as AMS 4137 and ASTM B247. Key elements are:

2. Mechanical Properties

2124 forgings are typically heat-treated to T851 temper (solution heat-treated, stress-relieved, and artificially aged). Key properties include:

3. Common Forging Product

Aircraft: Spars, ribs, actuator fittings.

Defense: Armor plates, missile casings.

Industrial: High-pressure valve bodies, gearbox housings.

Space: Launch vehicle brackets, payload adapters.
