EN AW-2017 / A
EN AW-2017 / A is a high-strength, hardenable aluminium wrought alloy widely used in aerospace, defence, and engineering.
To unlock its full potential, a heat treatment such as solution annealing followed by natural aging is required. Its combination of strength and machinability makes it particularly suitable for demanding structural components and precision applications.
We offer EN AW-2017 / A turned billets in diameters ranging from 140 mm to 1,080 mm, tailored to meet your specific needs.
EN AW-2017 / A applications
EN AW-2017 / A is widely used across industries where strength and machinability are essential. Its primary applications include:
- Aerospace: High-strength structural parts.
- Defence technology: Critical components under load.
- Mechanical engineering: Precision-machined parts.
Mechanical properties
The mechanical properties of EN AW-2017 / A make it suitable for highly stressed parts. Although there is no standard for cast round rods, a Brinell hardness of approximately 85 HBW in the homogenised state serves as a reference value for cast material. This state is comparable in strength to the annealed state ("O") for extruded products. Final strength can be adjusted through reshaping processes or heat treatments performed by our customers.
