Description

A high quality aerospace grade aluminum alloy (AA2124) reinforced with 25% 3-micron silicon carbide which is manufactured via a powder metallurgy route using a high energy mixing process to ensure a homogeneous distribution of the reinforcement and to refine the grain structure to enhance mechanical properties. The alloy is heat treatable offering high strength and modulus for structural applications and is available in billet, forged and extruded forms.


225XE Advantages:


  • Weight saving
  • High Strength
  • Increased component stiffness
  • High fatigue resistance
  • Hardness, wear resistance & low friction characteristics
  • Good machinability using conventional techniques
  • Homogenous stable microstructure
  • Equivalent Materials

    This material data has been provided by Materion Brush GmbH.

    "Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
    All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
    Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
