ALLOY DESIGNATIONS
Aluminium alloy QQ-A-250/4 has similarities to the following standard designations and specifications but may not be a direct equivalent:
AMS 4035, Alloy 2024, UNS A92024
TEMPER TYPES
Alloy QQ-A-250/4 is supplied in a wide range of tempers:
T351 is intended to provide material with low residual stresses and thus minimal distortion during machining, but does not provide optimal corrosion resistance.
- O - Soft
- T3 - Solution heat treated, cold worked and naturally aged
- T42 - Solution heat treated and naturaly aged to a substantially stable condition
- T81 - Solution heat treated, cold worked then artificially aged
- T351 - Solution heat treated then stress relieved by stretching. Equivalent to T4 condition.
- T4 - Solution heat treated and naturaly aged to a substantially stable condition
- T62 - Solution heat treated then artificially aged by the user
- T851 - Solution heat treated then stress relieved by stretching then artificially aged.
- T361 - Solution heat treated then stress relieved by stretching.
- T72 - Solution heat treated then specially artificially aged for resistance to stress corrosion
- T861
