7075 aluminium plate is made of one of the strongest of the aluminum alloys. Its use parallels that of 2024, with 7075 selected when higher mechanical properties are desired. 7075 aluminium is an aluminum-zinc alloy with 1%-8% zinc in addition to small amounts of magnesium and small quantities of copper and chromium. This alloy is precipitation hardened to very high strength levels. Alloy 7075 is used in airframe structures and other highly stressed components.
We supply aluminium sheet plate H14 from 1mm up to and including 4mm thick and these sheets are supplied with an easily removable protective PVC coating on one side to protect the face from scratching during the cutting process. 1mm -4mm thick sheet is guillotined to size prior to despatch – don’t forget to take advantage of our cutting service which will allow you to specify the exact dimensions you would like your sheet sheared to.
Our aluminum plate 5mm & 6mm is supplied in grade 6082T6 – these thicknesses are supplied with a protective PVC coating on both sides of the plate. Again, these are guillotined to size to order, so simply select the nearest size from the drop down menu (i.e 500mm x 500mm) and then use the cutting facility to ask us to cut it to your required size prior to despatch.
Our 8mm – 65mm thick plates are also supplied in grade 6082T6. We offer these thicker plates in standard widths of 7”, 8”, 10” & 12”.
