Chuck Metals stands out as a top manufacturer and supplier of Aluminium 2017 Forgings in Singapore, catering to a variety of engineering and industrial sectors throughout Pulau Ujong and Southeast Asia. Aluminium 2017 is a heat-treatable, high-strength alloy that’s well-regarded for its impressive machinability, solid fatigue resistance, and decent corrosion resistance. It belongs to the 2000 series of aluminum alloys, which are copper-based and commonly utilized in aerospace and structural applications. Our 2017 forgings meet ASTM B247 and other relevant industry standards, ensuring precise tolerances, a fantastic surface finish, and dependable mechanical properties for critical uses.
Typically, Aluminium 2017 Forgings contain 3.5–4.5% copper, 0.4–1.0% manganese, and 0.4–0.8% magnesium, along with trace amounts of iron, silicon, and zinc. This alloy boasts a tensile strength that ranges from 390–480 MPa and a yield strength of about 245–390 MPa, depending on the temper. It’s heat-treatable, which means it can achieve greater strength through precipitation hardening. While Aluminium 2017 offers good machinability, it’s not as corrosion-resistant as pure aluminum, so it might need protective coatings or anodizing in tough environments.

Aluminum 2017 is suitable for forging but has limited high-temperature resistance. For high-temperature forging applications, consider alloys with better heat resistance, like 2219 or 2618.
The workability of Aluminum 2017, being moderate, affects forging by requiring precise temperature control (400–480°C) to prevent cracking and achieve proper plastic deformation, making it suitable for intricate shapes with care.
Aluminum 2017 offers high strength, excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance, and ease of welding, making it ideal for custom forgings in aerospace, military, and high-performance applications.
Aluminium 2017 Forgings are popular in aerospace structures, automotive parts, transportation fittings, and military-grade hardware, thanks to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio. You’ll find them in applications like aircraft fuselage frames, rivets, gears, shafts, and hydraulic valve components. They’re also used in marine settings, machinery, and sports equipment where strength, wear resistance, and fatigue performance are essential. Aluminium 2017 is perfect for situations that demand high-load capacity, great machinability, and stability in dimensions after heat treatment.
