EN AW-2024 (AlCu4Mg1) aluminium round bar
Aluminium round bars

EN AW-2024 (AlCu4Mg1) aluminium round bar

A high-strength, readily machinable alloy grade. Its primary alloying element is copper (Cu), which gives it exceptional strength but also limits its corrosion resistance and weldability.

  • Very good machinability
  • Higher than medium strength
  • Excellent formability
Field of use
  • Machine superstructures
  • High-strength structures
  • Defence industry
  • Aerospace industry
