Aluminium Alloy 2017 is a heat-treatable aluminium-copper alloy that combines useful strength with good machinability and moderate formability.
Heat treatment provides substantially higher strength than commercially pure grades.
Suitable for precision machining and fabricated components.
Maintains useful ductility in appropriate tempers.
Widely recognized for aerospace and general engineering applications.
Aluminium Alloy 2017 is selected for applications that match its specific strength, corrosion, forming, machining and service characteristics.
Used for selected aerospace structural and machined components.
Suitable for rivets and mechanical hardware in appropriate tempers.
Used for precision components requiring a strength-to-weight advantage.
Selected for mechanical parts where moderate-to-high strength is required.
Strength and ductility depend strongly on temper and product form.
Copper-bearing alloys generally require more corrosion protection than 5xxx alloys.
Welding can reduce the heat-treated strength near the joint; assess the design accordingly.
The commonly listed Werkstoff / EN cross-reference for Aluminium Alloy 2017 is 3.1325. Treat this as a grade comparison, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify chemistry, product form, condition and governing specification against the supplier certificate before substitution.
Yes. It is a precipitation-hardening aluminium alloy.
It has moderate corrosion resistance and may require protection in aggressive environments.
Typical uses include aerospace and engineering components, rivets, hardware and machined parts.
