Isis Metals is a reputable manufacturer and supplier located in Manila, Philippines, with a focus on high-quality Aluminium 2017 Forgings. The company is well-regarded for its commitment to precision and outstanding material performance, offering aluminum forgings that adhere to strict industrial standards. Aluminium 2017 is a heat-treatable alloy that’s highly valued for its impressive strength, hardness, and good machinability, making it a popular choice in aerospace and structural applications. Isis Metals employs cutting-edge forging techniques alongside rigorous quality control to produce durable, high-performance forgings that meet the demanding mechanical and structural needs of various industries, establishing itself as a go-to source for reliable and robust aluminum components.
Aluminium 2017 Forgings mainly consist of aluminum with copper (3.5–4.5%) as the primary alloying element, along with trace amounts of magnesium, manganese, iron, silicon, and zinc. This unique blend results in remarkable strength, typically falling between 380 to 480 MPa in tensile strength, and good hardness after heat treatment. While its corrosion resistance is moderate, the alloy can be anodized or coated for added protection. It also boasts good machinability and fatigue resistance, making it ideal for parts that endure heavy loads and mechanical stress.

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.
These forgings are extensively used in aerospace applications, including aircraft structural components, wing skins, and fuselage frames, thanks to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio. The alloy is also utilized in the automotive and military sectors for engine parts, gears, and heavy-duty fasteners. Furthermore, it finds applications in precision machinery, tooling, and structural projects where durability and performance under stress are essential. With its blend of strength, machinability, and toughness, Aluminium 2017 is perfectly suited for challenging engineering and manufacturing tasks.
