AMC225XE Wheel Forging

AMC225xe

Material Grade:

AMC225xe

 

Material Type:

Metal Matrix Composite - Silicon Carbide Particle Reinforced Aluminium Alloy

 

Description:

AMC225xe is a high quality aerospace grade aluminium alloy (AA2124) reinforced with 25% by volume of ultra-fine particles of silicon carbide. It is manufactured by a powder metallurgy route using high-energy mixing to ensure excellent particle distribution and to enhance mechanical properties.

 

This material offers a high tensile modulus (approximately 60% higher than the parent alloy), good strength, excellent fatigue characteristics and is particularly suited to applications demanding a good balance of properties.  AMC225xe may be machined to fine surface finish and tolerances using high speed techniques.
