Brian Fasteners produces Houston Aluminium 2024 Forgings for high-strength structural applications. A copper-aluminum alloy highly valued in the aerospace industry, 2024 forgings provide exceptional mechanical strength and fatigue resistance. Though slightly less corrosion-resistant, surface finishes maximize durability. Our forgings are AMS and ASTM compliant, providing accuracy shapes and heat treatments that conform to engineering designs. Best suited for aircraft fittings, high-load assemblies, and performance assemblies, Brian Fasteners guarantees high quality and traceability.
Contains ~4.4% Cu, ~1.5% Mg, ~0.6% Mn; the rest Al. Tensile strength ~470 MPa; yield ~325 MPa. Heat-treatable and age-sensitive, possesses superior fatigue resistance and machinability. Has moderate corrosion resistance, which is enhanced through cladding or coatings.
