7005 aluminiumlegering

What Is 7005 Aluminum?

7005 is strengthened by zinc and magnesium with added manganese for corrosion resistance and strength. Unlike the very high-strength 7075, 7005 is formulated to weld well and keep useful properties in the as-welded condition, which is why it appears in boat hulls, rail vehicles, and welded frames. Its strength is higher than 6061 and close to, though generally below, 7075.

Gids voor het kiezen van de juiste temperatuur

T6

Peak strength for demanding welded or bolted structures.

T53

Stress-relieved for improved dimensional stability after welding; common in welded frames.

T5

Cooled from extrusion and aged; strong and economical for general structures.

O

Annealed for heavy forming before fabrication.

Belangrijkste kenmerken

Lasbaarheid

Excellent; widely used in welded assemblies that must stay strong after fabrication.

Marine corrosion resistance

Good resistance suitable for boat hulls and offshore structures with proper finishing.

Sterkte

Higher than 6061, below 7075.

Fatigue performance

Good for cyclic-loaded transport structures.

Toepassingen

• Marine hulls, frames, and superstructures
• Rail and metro vehicle bodies
• Welded sporting-goods structures
• Bridges and architectural welded frames

Opmerkingen over bewerking en oppervlakteafwerking

7005 welds readily with TIG/MIG using 5356 filler; post-weld artificial aging (T53/T6 route) can restore strength. It machines well and can be anodized, though 7xxx colors may vary slightly. For marine use, pair with appropriate surface finishing and isolation from dissimilar metals.

7005 Aluminum FAQ

Is 7005 good for marine use?

Yes. It offers good corrosion resistance and excellent weldability, which is why it is common in boat hulls and frames. Use proper finishing and avoid galvanic contact with dissimilar metals.

How does 7005 compare to 6061?

7005 is stronger and welds to higher retained strength, at some cost in corrosion margin versus 6061. Choose 7005 where load and weld performance dominate.

What filler is used for welding 7005?

5356 filler is typical for TIG/MIG welding of 7005. Confirm filler and post-weld treatment with your fabrication spec.

Veelgestelde vragen over bestellingen in het algemeen

What is the typical lead time for custom aluminum orders?

Custom sizes and tempers usually ship within 10 to 60 days. Confirm the exact window when you request a quote, as it depends on alloy, temper, dimensions, and order quantity.

Wat is de minimale bestelhoeveelheid (MOQ)?

MOQ is flexible and reviewed case by case. Small lots and prototypes can often be accommodated; larger or standard runs are more economical. Share your required dimensions and quantity for a firm quote.

Which quality documents come with the order?

Every order ships with a Mill Test Certificate (MTC). ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications apply to our management system. SGS third-party test reports can be arranged on request.
