Alcoa 2024 alloy has good machinability and machined surface finish capability, and is a high-strength material of adequate workability. It has largely superseded alloy 2017 (see Alloy Digest Al-58, August 1974) for structural applications. The alloy has comparable strength to some mild steels. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as machining and surface treatment. Filing Code: AL-346. Producer or source: ALCOA Wire, Rod & Bar Division.
