TEMPER TYPES

7040 is supplied in mostly below of tempers:
  • T7451 - Solution heat-treated, stress-relieved by controlled stretching and then artificially overaged (between T73 and T76). The products receive no further straightening after stretching.
  • T7651 - Solution heat-treated, stress-relieved by controlled stretching and then artificially overaged in order to achieve a good exfoliation corrosion resistance. The products recieve no further straightening after stretching.
