| Alloy 2011 | One of the most popular screw machine stock alloys available. Tennalum's Microchip II (T3 temper only) offers excellent machinability and surface finish. The chips from Tennalum's Microchip II (T3 temper only) are notoriously known for being small in size. Typically used in connectors and fittings, brake pistons, computer parts, knobs, and meter shafts. | ||
| Alloy 2014 | One of the strongest heat treatable alloys for screw machine applications. Good machinability and high strength. Corrosion resistance is only fair; however, weldability is good with arc and resistance methods. In many applications this alloy can be substituted for 2024. | ||
| Alloy 2017 | Good machinability and good mechanical properties. Used in rivets, general structural applications, and transportation. | ||
| Alloy 2024 | Good machinability and good mechanical properties. Typically used in aircraft structures, rivets, connectors, hydraulic valve bodies, and miscellaneous structural applications. | ||
| Alloy 2219 | Good machinability and good mechanical properties. Typically used in high temperature , structural applications. Also used in high strength weldments. | ||
| Alloy 4026 | Excellent wear resistance in both galling (sporadic motion) and wear (frequent sliding friction) applications. Requires no anodizing for galling/wear resistance appl ications and has good machinability as well as high strength. | ||
| Alloy 6033 | A higher strength version of alloy 6061 with improved machinability. Good corrosion resistance and anodize response | ||
| Alloy 6061 | Excellent joining characteristics and good acceptance of coatings (anodize response). Used in applications where weldability and corrosion resistance are needed. Typically used in fittings, brake pistons, computer parts, couplings and valves. | ||
| Alloy 6262 | Good machinability and corrosion resistance. Good acceptance of coatings (anodize response). Typically used in automotive parts, fittings, builders hardware, and valve components. | ||
| Alloy 6040 | Lead-free alternative to 6262. Offers good machinability and corrosion resistance. Good acceptance of coatings (anodize response). It can be used in place of 6262. Physical and mechanical properties are equivalent to 6262. In most applications this alloy can be substituted for 6262. | ||
| Alloy 7049 | Very high mechanical properties (tensile strength) and good machinability. Offers a high resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Typically used in aircraft structural parts. | ||
| Alloy 7050 | Very high mechanical properties (tensile strength), high fracture toughness, along with a high resistance to exfoliation and stress corrosion cracking. Typically used in aircraft structural parts. | ||
| Alloy 7075 | High mechanical properties and in the T73 or T76 temper, offers improved stress corrosion cracking resistance. Good machinability and typically used in aircraft structural parts. | ||
| Alloy 7068 | Highest mechanical properties (tensile strength). Intended for aerospace, ordnance and light weight recreational applications where extremely high strength is required. |
