2024 Aluminium Tube

For structural applications.


2024 aluminium is one of the most broadly used aluminiums in the aerospace sector.

2024 aluminium tubes combine high strength with good fatigue resistance.


With excellent fatigue resistance and high strength, 2024 aluminium tubes are typically used in structural applications and aerospace components. 2024 aluminium is one of the most broadly used aluminium in the aerospace sector. The main alloying element is copper (3.8% - 4.9%). The material promotes good workability and machinability and is easily machined to a high finish. Weldability is generally poor, although it can be flash spot or seam welded where necessary. Corrosion resistance is generally poor and the alloy can suffer from intergranular corrosion under specific conditions. We stock 2024 aluminium tubes in a variety of sizes and tempers (including T3, T351, T3511, T81 or T8511).


Tube Cutting

Our tube cutting service ensures that we provide customers with tubular products supplied to specific lengths. We perform all processing operations in-house.
