Mechanical and Physical Properties :
Aluminum Alloy 2017 products combine having a low coefficient of thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity high tensile and impact strength. These properties are suitable for a wide range of structural and mechanical components. The mechanical properties of Aluminum 2017 sheet and plate at low, ambient, and elevated temperatures are shown below. Test data shown are for all samples under annealed and quenched conditions.
Aluminum 2017 products are not recommended for applications requiring prolonged exposure to temperatures above 570°F because of the increased risk of reduced toughness. The data listed here is typical of wrought products and should not be considered as maximum or minimum values unless specifically stated.
