Metallurgical specifications of Rods and Wires of Aluminum alloy 2011

General Characteristics
The 2011 alloy is free machining alloy and temper combination.

that compares favorably with free cutting brass. 2011 is the alloy of choice when good strength and high machining rates are desired. It can be machined to very close tolerances and produces excellent machined surface finishes. Resistance welding, corrosion resistance and its ability to be anodized are only fair. Other forms of welding are not recommended. Additional strength, without compromising machinability, can be achieved using the T8 temper.
