Aluminium 2017 is an aluminium-copper alloy celebrated for its strong mechanical properties and excellent machinability. It outperforms many commercially pure and magnesium-based alloys in terms of strength. Typical mechanical characteristics include a tensile strength of about 430 MPa, a yield strength of around 290 MPa, and commendable fatigue resistance. While Aluminium 2017 has decent corrosion resistance, it’s often surface treated or clad to boost its durability in challenging environments.

Aluminum 2017 is suitable for forging but has limited high-temperature resistance. For high-temperature forging applications, consider alloys with better heat resistance, like 2219 or 2618.
The workability of Aluminum 2017, being moderate, affects forging by requiring precise temperature control (400–480°C) to prevent cracking and achieve proper plastic deformation, making it suitable for intricate shapes with care.
Aluminum 2017 offers high strength, excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance, and ease of welding, making it ideal for custom forgings in aerospace, military, and high-performance applications.
Aluminium 2017 Forgings find their way into a variety of applications that demand both strength and machinability. They are frequently used in aerospace components, automotive parts, gears, shafts, and structural fittings. This alloy is also a go-to choice in general engineering, machinery parts, and high-stress mechanical components. Aluminium 2017 forgings are ideal for situations where precision, load-bearing capacity, and dependable performance are crucial, especially in dry or moderately corrosive conditions.
