Dhruv Metals, a reputable manufacturer and supplier located in Hyderabad, India, focuses on producing high-performance Aluminium 7050 Forgings tailored for aerospace, defense, and high-stress structural applications. Renowned for its remarkable strength, toughness, and resistance to corrosion, Aluminium 7050 is perfect for challenging environments where reliability is paramount. Dhruv Metals crafts a range of forged components, including shafts, rings, blocks, and custom shapes, all adhering to international standards like ASTM B247. With state-of-the-art production facilities, precision engineering, and rigorous quality control, the company provides forged solutions designed to meet the specific needs of both local and global clients.
Aluminium 7050 is a heat-treatable aluminum alloy that mainly consists of 6.2% zinc, 2.3% magnesium, and 2.3% copper, along with small amounts of zirconium, iron, and silicon. This alloy delivers exceptional mechanical strength, particularly in thicker sections, boasting a tensile strength of up to 572 MPa and a yield strength of around 503 MPa. It also shows impressive resistance to stress corrosion and fracture toughness, especially in the T7451 and T7651 tempers. Despite its high strength, 7050 offers good fatigue performance and dimensional stability, making it a top choice for structural applications in tough and corrosive settings.
