2014 Aluminium Sheet

2014 aluminium sheet finds use within the aerospace industry due to its high strength, good machinability, and excellent anodising capabilities.

---

Many 2014 sheets are supplied according to British specifications, such as L163 and L164.

Characteristics

2014 combines high strength with superior machining capabilities, which results in a highly versatile alloy. Our material is supplied in the fully heat-treated condition (solution heat-treated & artificially aged) and also benefits from good hardness. 2014 aluminium is one of the most popular 2xxx series alloys, and our sheet products are popular in the MRO sector.

Weldability and Corrosion Resistance

While offering impressive performance characteristics, 2014 aluminium sheet is difficult to weld, and the corrosion resistance of the alloy is generally poor. The alloy should be cladded with pure aluminium if deployed in corrosive environments. Alternatively, the material may be painted with a protective coating.

2014 aluminium sheet finds use in high-strength components within the aerospace and MRO sector. We support aerospace MRO customers with stock which we dispatch quickly to customers globally.
