Aluminum Alloy, Extruded Rod, Bar, and Profiles (7055-T76511) 8.0Zn - 2.3Cu - 2.0Mg - 0.16Zr Solution Heat Treated, Stress-Relieved, and Overaged
AMS4336
This specification covers an aluminum alloy procured in the form of extruded bars, rods, and profiles (shapes) with nominal thickness up to 3.000 inch (76.20 mm), inclusive, and having a cross-sectional area of 26.3 square inches (170 cm2) maximum and circle size of 15.3 inches (389 mm) maximum (see 8.7).
These extrusions have been used typically for structural applications requiring a combination of high tensile and compressive strength and good exfoliation corrosion resistance, but usage is not limited to such applications.
Rationale: AMS4336D results from a Five-Year Review and update of this specification. This standard is being reviewed as part of the SAE Five-Year Review policy. The committee will look at possible changes to ordering information and other potential updates throughout the standard.
