Aluminium 2017 Bars and Rods are mainly made up of aluminium (over 90%), with copper (3.5–4.5%) being the key alloying element, along with trace amounts of manganese and magnesium. This unique blend gives the alloy impressive strength and good fatigue resistance. In terms of mechanics, Aluminium 2017 boasts a tensile strength of about 430 MPa, a yield strength of around 280 MPa, and moderate resistance to corrosion. It also provides good machinability and limited weldability, making it ideal for applications that require a high strength-to-weight ratio. The alloy shines in heat-treated conditions, like T4 and T6 tempers, which enhance its mechanical characteristics.

Yes, Aluminium 2017 can be welded, but it requires careful control due to its high strength and susceptibility to cracking. Specialized welding techniques like TIG or MIG are recommended.
To maintain Aluminium 2017, regularly clean with mild detergent and water, avoid abrasive materials, store in a dry environment, and prevent exposure to corrosive substances to preserve its strength and appearance.
Aluminium 2017 rods are typically sized by diameter and length. Common diameters range from 1/8 inch to several inches, while lengths can vary from a few feet to custom sizes based on needs.
Aluminium 2017 Bars and Rods are a go-to choice in industries that demand strength, machinability, and wear resistance. In the aerospace field, you’ll find them in structural components, aircraft fittings, and rivets. The automotive industry relies on them for engine parts, transmission components, and suspension systems. When it comes to marine applications, this alloy’s toughness makes it perfect for boat frames and hardware. Plus, it’s used in defense, precision engineering, and tooling sectors. While Aluminium 2017 has moderate corrosion resistance, it’s often anodized or coated to boost protection, making it suitable for tough environments where performance and durability are key.
