7000 Series Aluminum Alloy: Key Properties & Specifications
1. Chemical Composition
7000 series alloys are zinc-based (Zn: 4.0–8.0%) with magnesium, copper, and chromium additions.
Grade | Aluminum (%) | Zinc (Zn) (%) | Magnesium (Mg) (%) | Copper (Cu) (%) | Chromium (Cr) (%) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
7075 | Bal. | 5.1–6.1 | 2.1–2.9 | 1.2–2.0 | 0.18–0.28 |
7050 | Bal. | 5.7–6.7 | 1.9–2.6 | 2.0–2.6 | 0.10–0.15 |
7046 | Bal. | 7.5–8.5 | 1.8–2.4 | 0.50–1.0 | 0.05–0.15 |
7010 | Bal. | 5.7–6.7 | 1.5–2.1 | 1.5–2.1 | 0.05–0.15 |
Trace elements (Fe, Si, Ti) vary by grade. Request full material datasheets for details.
2. Physical & Mechanical Properties
Density : 2.80–2.85 g/cm³ Melting Range : 475–630°C Tensile Strength : 450–580 MPa (T6 temper) Yield Strength : 380–520 MPa Elongation : 5–12% (dependent on temper) Fatigue Strength : 140–200 MPa (10⁷ cycles, R = -1) Fracture Toughness : 25–35 MPa√m (T-L orientation)
3. Performance Advantages
Ultra-High Strength : 7075-T651 for aircraft landing gears; 7050-T7451 for military vehicle armor. Stress-Corrosion Resistance : T73/T76 tempers for marine and humid environments. Machinability : Suitable for CNC milling, drilling, and threading with carbide tools. Weldability : Requires specialized techniques (e.g., friction-stir welding).
