7075 T6 is an high strength alloy which also exhibits  low stress corrosion cracking resistance, therefore it eventually generated the need of improving the corrosion resistance of 7075 alloy. Thus the 7075 T73 heat treatment - tempering has been developed. While the T73 and especially the T7351 heat treatment - tempering provide very high corrosion resistance, they also provide processing properties with almost perfect precision tolerances without surface distortion in 7075 aluminum. Therefore, it is used a lot in the aviation industry and since the beginning of the 2000s most old machinery / mold companies, especially in the US and Europe, have shifted to start using them as well. Since 2007, Referans Metal has been the pioneering company by producing and supplying 7075 T73  in plate and bar forms for the machine / mold industry in Türkiye for the first time ever. Evaluation of the technical data in such applications by our engineering department  serves great importance in drawing and design processes.
