Aluminum 7050 has very high mechanical
properties, high fracture toughness, along with a high resistance to exfoliation
and stress corrosion cracking.
Applications: Aluminum 7050 is typically used
in aircraft structural parts.

Forming
The 7050 alloy may be readily formed in either the O temper or the heat
treated condition.
Welding
Welding of 7050 alloy is a problem and should be avoided. Gas tungsten or gas
metal arc welding is NOT successful with this alloy. Weld cracking and
porosity usually result and any weld joint that is made is much weaker than
the parent metal.
Heat Treatment
Solution heat treat at 890 F. Time at temperature is dependent upon section
thickness and the producer of the alloy should be consulted on this as well as
quenching rate.
Forging
The alloy may be forged. However no data is available without consulting the
alloy source.
Hot Working
As with Forging the 7050 alloy may be hot worked but no data is available
except from the alloy producer.
Cold Working
The alloy may be cold formed by conventional means. However bend radii should
be generous.
Aging
A 2 stage heat treatment is used for aging this alloy. First heat to 250 F for
3 to 6 hours (depending on section size) and follow that with 325 F for 15
hours then air cool.
Hardening
Hardens only by precipitation heat treatment. See "Aging".
Other Physical Props
Electrical conductivity 40% of copper.
