7175 Aluminium Plates

7175 aluminium alloys is similar to 7075, but with closer controls on the alloys iron and silicon content to optimise overall strength and toughness. Also known as a forging alloy, 7175 aluminium plate combines high mechanical strength, stress corrosion cracking resistance, and fracture toughness to create an ideal plate product for structural applications, particularly in the aerospace sector. The alloy should be considered for applications where high mechanical strength is a requirement. Other commercial applications for 7175 include the production of automotive components, gears and shafts. We stock a range of 7175 aluminium plates in a wide range of sizes and tempers, including T7351.
