What is 7075 Aluminum?

7075 Aluminum is our toughest and strongest aluminum alloy. Like 6061 aluminum, 7075 aluminum was made for use in the aerospace industry, where it’s used extensively. It’s lightweight and durable, so it also lends itself to bike frames, rock climbing equipment, and other high stress environments.

What can you make with 7075 Aluminum?

7075 sacrifices some of 5052 aluminum’s workability, formability, and weldability for increased hardness, strength, and overall toughness.

Still carrying the benefits of other aluminum alloys, such as lower weight and high fatigue strength, 7075 aluminum positions itself dominantly as having one of the best strength to weight ratios in any aluminum alloy.
