2024 7075 Aerospace Aluminum for Door Components
Aircraft door components must withstand frequent opening and closing, so the materials must have sufficient durability and fatigue strength to avoid damage from long-term use. Additionally, during flight, aircraft doors are affected by air pressure and airflow, necessitating materials with good deformation resistance to ensure stability and sealing during use. As critical safety structures, aircraft doors must maintain functionality under extreme conditions, and the choice of materials directly impacts the safety of passengers and crew.
Why Choose Aluminum 2024 and 7075 for Aircraft Door Components
The choice of aluminum alloys 2024 and 7075 for aircraft door components is mainly due to their high strength and excellent corrosion resistance. 2024 aluminum alloy is known for its exceptional strength and fatigue resistance, suitable for components that endure high pressure and impacts. 7075 aluminum alloy offers even higher strength and hardness, particularly in applications requiring deformation resistance and structural stability. The combination of both effectively enhances the durability and safety of aircraft doors, ensuring reliable performance under various extreme conditions. This design not only strengthens the structure but also optimizes weight to meet the strict requirements of the aerospace industry.
