2017A T451 aluminum rod

After solid solution and artificial aging treatment, 2017A T451 aluminum rods are stronger and harder, but they are less impact-tough and plastic than aluminum in T4 temper. Typical uses include parts for automobiles and structures that need to be extremely strong and resistant to wear.

 

2017A T6 aluminum rod

Following solid solution and artificial aging treatment, 2017A T6 aluminum rods have the highest strength and hardness; however, aluminum's impact toughness and plasticity are also diminished. Aero engines, aircraft parts, and structural components needing high strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability are among its common uses.
