2024 aluminum alloy greatly reduces the content of impurities Fe and Si, and has higher room temperature and high temperature mechanical properties than ZL201. Its cutting and welding properties are good, but its casting properties are poor. It can be used for parts working at 300℃ or parts that bear large dynamic or static loads at normal temperature. Sand casting is often used.
2024 aluminum alloy has relatively good casting performance and high high-temperature strength, hardness and wear resistance, but poor corrosion resistance. It is suitable for casting parts with a working temperature of 250℃ and low load, such as cylinder heads, etc. Mainly used sand casting and metal mold casting.
The 2024 thin plate can be used as the lining plate of machines and refrigerators, automobile air pipes, oil pipes and agricultural irrigation pipes; it can also be processed into thick plates, pipes, bars, special-shaped materials and wires, etc.
This alloy has good formability, corrosion resistance, burnability, fatigue strength and moderate static strength. It is used to manufacture aircraft fuel tanks, oil pipes, as well as sheet metal parts of transportation vehicles and ships, instruments, street lamp brackets and rivets. , hardware products, etc.
2024 aluminum alloy, 2024 is mainly alloyed with copper. It also contains manganese and magnesium and may sometimes contain smaller amounts of silicon, iron, chromium, zinc and/or titanium. It is a high-strength, very hard aluminum alloy. Generally used to manufacture various high-load parts, such as some spare parts on aircraft
2024 aluminum alloy product characteristics
1. A high-strength hard aluminum. Can be strengthened by heat treatment;
2. It has medium plasticity in the annealed and freshly quenched states, good spot welding performance, and a tendency to form intergranular cracks when using gas welding and argon arc welding;
< p>3. The machinability of the alloy is good after quenching and cold work hardening, but the machinability is low after annealing;
4. The corrosion resistance is not high, and anodizing and painting methods are often used or An aluminum layer is added to the surface to improve its corrosion resistance
Uses of 2024 aluminum alloy
It is used to make various high-load parts and components (but not stampings and forgings). Such as aircraft skeleton parts, skin, bulkheads, wing ribs, wing spars, rivets and other parts that operate below 150°C. The trend of replacing 7A04 is useful when making extremely high-load parts

Our heavy-duty forging presses support open-die forging and deformation of large-section forgings, including discs, shafts, blocks, and custom components. This capability enables us to meet the demanding forming requirements of heavy industrial applications.
Heat treatment is a critical step in achieving the mechanical properties required for heavy-duty forgings. Our process capabilities meet the strength, toughness, and structural stability requirements for forged components used under demanding operating conditions.
We offer machining capabilities for large forged shafts and long cylindrical components, supporting both rough and finish machining. This capacity is suitable for stepped shafts, rotor shafts, rollers, and other heavy-duty forged shaft components.
Our machining facilities are capable of handling large ring-shaped forgings and circular parts that require precise turning, face machining, boring, and contour control. This capability is suitable for industrial ring blanks, heavy-duty circular parts, and machined ring forgings.
We offer machining solutions for heavy-duty cylindrical, hollow, and tubular forgings. This capability supports the machining of sleeves, cylinders, and other thick-walled forged components used in pressure vessels, rotating systems, and general industrial applications.
Quality control is integrated into our production process through the inspection and testing of forged and machined parts. Our capabilities help verify the dimensional accuracy, condition, and quality consistency of industrial forgings prior to delivery.
Finished forgings are properly protected and packaged to minimize the risk of damage during storage and transportation. Our packaging methods ensure the safe domestic delivery and export shipment of machined and high-value forged components.
