Heat-treatable Aluminium
2024 aluminium is a grade with high strength
containing 3.8 to 4.9 % copper.

2024 aluminium alloy is a heat treatable material with


both high strength and excellent fatigue resistance.

Workability is good and components can easily be


machined to a high finish. Weldability is generally poor,
although it can be flash spot or seam welded if
necessary. 2024 is used in applications where a high
strength/weight ratio is required. Bars are produced in
drawn, rolled or cold-finished form. Smiths Advanced
Metals stocks bars from grade 2024 in various shapes,
sizes and tempers (including T3, T351, T3511, T4, T6 or
T851 tempers).
