Alloys and their application:
Alloys for the production of screws, studs, nuts and threaded details
Alloy 2011 with thermal treatment T3/T6 and T8 - The most commonly used alloy for high-speed automated lathes. Advantages: simple machine processing with any type of equipment; lowest tension during cutting, which increases the useful lifespan of the cutting tools. The cutting area is always clean due to the extremely thin chip. It suitable for anodizing in several colors. Mainly used for the production of screws, studs, nuts, and threaded couplings.
Alloys 2030 and 2007 with thermal treatment T3 and T4 – In comparison to all other alloys used by high-speed automated lathes, alloys 2030 and 2007 have the best mechanical characteristics. Thus, they are most commonly used when combination between good machine processing features and superior mechanical properties are requested. They have low corrosion resistance. An excellent choice for the manufacturing of threaded rods, nuts, screws, etc.
Alloys for the production of components with high structural resistance, used in military and aircraft production industries
Alloy 2014 with thermal treatment T3/T4 and T6 –It shows superb mechanical properties, excellent fatigue resistance, good indications in forging, and average machine processing features.
Alloy 2017 with thermal treatment T3/T4/T6, and Alloy 2024 with thermal treatment T3 – Its has excellent mechanical properties and fatigue resistance. Not recommended for automated lathes as it produces long chips during machine processing.
Alloy 7075 with thermal treatment T6 – Features exceptionally high mechanical properties and excellent fatigue resistance. It is also highly corrosion resistant and can be anodized. Anodization can be used as a protective layer, decoration element or tempering.
Sixth series alloys and their applications
6082 and 6061 with thermal treatment T6 – Average values of mechanical parameters, superb corrosion resistance, excellent welding properties, hot treatment and anodizing. These alloys are used mainly in the production of high voltage parts for land and maritime transport; anti-shock rods; door frames;cars’ sub-frames; hydraulic systems; ladders and scaffolding; platforms; screws and rivets; food industry
6026 with thermal treatment T6 and T8/T9 –This alloy is specifically designed as a replacement of 6262 in order to meet European environment requirements. It is a very good option for machine processing by high-speed automated lathes. It also has good corrosion resistance, medium high mechanical properties and good susceptibility to hard anodizing. 6026 does not contain tin /Sn/, which has proven to be causing cracks in the already manufactured elements when they are subjected to stress and high temperatures. It can replace 6061, 6082, 6064, 6042, 6262, 6012, 2007 and 2030. 6026 is used predominantly in the automotive, electrical and electronics industries, and in the production of screws, studs, nuts, and threaded couplings.
6064A with thermal treatment T6 and T8/T9 – The alloy has good machine processing characteristics and high mechanical properties. It has good corrosion resistance, and it is suitable for anodizing with the purpose of serving as protection, tempering or decoration. Used mainly in cars’ brake systems, structural components for urban construction, railways and heavy vehicles.
6262A with thermal treatment T6 and T8/T9 – This type of alloy is environmentally friendly, with 0 content of lead as compared to 6262. It features fine machine processing properties and high mechanical characteristics. It has good corrosion resistance, and it is suitable for anodizing with the purpose of serving as protection, tempering or decoration. It is the best choice for machine processing by high-speed automatic lathes, elements for automotive industry, automatic shafts, valves and connectors.
Tubes - extruded and drawn
Extruded pipes – These pipes are manufactured under accepted European standards, with maximum and minimum tolerances in geometry deviations. They can be offered in a variety of geometric shapes: square, round and rectangular. The most common alloy for pipes is 6082, which you will find in our stock. Nevertheless, you may send an inquiry to our offices for the delivery terms of alloy as per your current needs.
Drawn pipes/calibrated – AUDAX CORP offers the supply of drawn tubes. These production process guarantees exceptional dimensional control and a superb finish of the pipe’s surface. These tubes are delivered only at customer’s request and are not kepton stock due to their strict and specific end use.
