The aluminum alloy 7099 is a Kaiser aluminum high-strength Al-Mg-Zn-Cu alloy with zirconium that offers a less quench-sensitive alloy for properties in thicker sections for airframe structures such as wing ribs, spars, and skins, as well as fuselage frames and floor beams. This datasheet provides information on key alloy metallurgy and processing effects on mechanical properties of this 7xxx series alloy.

Alloy 2027 is an Al-Cu-Mg-Mn-Zr alloy providing improved mechanical properties compared with those of alloy 2024. Alloy 2027-T3511 extrusions are typically used for stringers to stiffen wing skin panels machined from damage tolerant 2xxx alloy plates. This datasheet provides information on key alloy metallurgy and processing effects on mechanical properties of plate and extrusions of this 2xxx series alloy.

Alloy 6156 is an Al-Si-Mg-Cu-Mn weldable alloy, developed for the lower portion of the fuselage, which required a T6 temper strength level and high damage tolerance properties. This datasheet provides information on key alloy metallurgy of this 6xxx series alloy. Fatigue crack growth and material toughness for various thicknesses of alloy 6156 clad T62 are illustrated.

Alloy 2055 is an Al-Cu-Li alloy developed as a replacement for high-strength 7xxx and 2xxx alloys in applications such as fuselage stringers and floor beams. This datasheet provides information on its key alloy metallurgy and illustrates the damage tolerance of 2055-T84 extrusions and 7xxx extrusions.
