EN AW-2007 – THE FLEXIBLE

EN AW-2007 is a heat-treatable alloy. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a heat treatment such as solution annealing followed by natural aging. Only then can the alloy develop its full potential.

This typical free-machining alloy can be processed further at high cutting speeds. This results in the formation of characteristically short chips. This makes the EN-AW-2007 alloy ideal for turned parts such as washers or bolts.

EN AW-2007 applications

Due to EN AW-2007’s outstanding erosion and machining properties, it is primarily used in the manufacture of turned parts, such as washers or bolts.

Application areas

• Turned parts, precision engineering

• Control arms and tie rods

• Gas cylinders and pressurised cylinders

• Pistons and piston rods

• Structural tubes, control rods and hydraulic tubes for fluid transport

• Orthopedics

Moulds (cold dimensions)

Turned billets

We can produce all diameters between 140 - 1080 mm.

Mechanical properties

There is no standard for cast round rods (cast billets / bolts) that defines mechanical properties. A Brinell hardness in the homogenised state of approx. 72 HBW can be named as a guideline for cast material. The homogenised state (=„O3“ according to EN515) is comparable in strength with the annealed state (=„O“) for extruded products. The final strength is essentially adjusted by the reshaping process and/or the heat treatments by our customers.
