EN AW-2017 / A – HIGH-STRENGTH AND HIGH-TORQUE

Our EN AW-2017 / A alloy belongs to the group of high-strength, heat-treatable alloys. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a heat treatment such as solution annealing followed by natural aging.

This allows the alloy to develop its full potential and its strength is increased many times over. Its high strength and good machinability make EN AW-2017 / A the perfect choice for the aerospace and defense industry.

EN AW-2017 / A applications

Our alloy EN-AW 2017 / A is frequently used in the aerospace industry, in defense technology and in engineering and mechanical engineering (e.g. in the form of high-strength structural parts and rivets). Thanks to its valuable properties it is suitable for use in these sectors for highly stressed machining parts.

Application areas

• High-strength structural parts in aviation

• Defense technology

• Mechanical engineering

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. 85 HBW can be named as a guideline for cast material. The homogenized 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.
