Magnesium Elektron - Service & Innovation in Magnesium

Magnesium Elektron Elektron® AZ80A Magnesium Alloy, UNS M11800
Categories: Metal; Nonferrous Metal; Magnesium Alloy

Material Notes: AZ80A is a wrought magnesium base alloy containing aluminum, zinc and manganese. Increased strength is obtained by artificial aging from the as-fabricated form. Elektron AZ80A has a fine controlled microstructure for improved forging performance and consistent mechanical properties of the forged part.

Applications: AZ80A forgings can be used where pressure tightness or machinability are required. That parts are dimensionally stable during and after machining is also an important design consideration. Forgings in AZ80A find application in high strength parts for satellites, helicopter gearboxes and rotor hubs, bicycle frames, road wheels, missile frames and interstage fairings, brake housings and landing gear struts.

Information provided by Magnesium Elektron.

Key Words: UNS M11800; AMS4360; ASTM B91-12; FEDERAL QQ-M-40B
Vendors: Magnesium Elektron is the world leader in high strength magnesium alloys in rolled, extruded and cast forms. Phone (303) 589-3189 or visit www.magnesium-elektron.com.
