Aluminium 2014 Square Bars
Aluminium 2014 Square Bars – Premium Quality from Metalco Extrusions Global LLP
Welcome to Metalco Extrusions Global LLP, your trusted supplier of high-performance metal products. We are pleased to offer our premium grade Aluminium 2014 Square Bars, also referred to as 2014 Aluminium Square Bars, designed to meet the most demanding industrial applications. With global standards, precise manufacturing, and reliable delivery, our 2014 aluminium square bars are the ideal choice when strength, machinability and versatility matter.
Why Choose 2014 Aluminium Square Bars?
The alloy 2014 (also known as UNS A92014) is part of the 2xxx series of aluminium-copper alloys. This alloy is widely recognized for its high strength, good machinability and suitability for components that require exacting mechanical performance.
Our Aluminium 2014 Square Bars deliver these advantages in the square-bar form factor:
High strength & toughness – alloy 2014 is one of the strongest among the wrought aluminium alloys.
Excellent machinability – the alloy is well suited to precision machining, drilling, milling and turning.
Weight-saving potential – as aluminium, the material is light in weight compared to steels, enabling more efficient structures and components.
Dimensional flexibility – available in a wide range of sizes, lengths and finishes to match application requirements.
In short: when you need high-strength bar stock in a square cross‐section, 2014 Aluminium Square Bars from Metalco offer a compelling solution.
Manufacturing & Finishing of Aluminium 2014 Square Bars
Our production process for Aluminium 2014 Square Bars embraces stringent quality control and best-practice techniques to ensure superior material performance and reliability.
Raw material selection & melting
High‐quality aluminium alloy ingots of 2014 composition are selected, melted and cast into billets under controlled conditions to ensure uniform chemistry and microstructure.
Forming (extrusion or hot rolling)
The billets are heated and formed into the square bar shape via extrusion or hot rolling processes. For bars in larger cross-sections, hot-rolling may be used; for smaller precision sizes, extrusion followed by cold finishing may be applied.
Heat treatment / tempering
After forming, the bars undergo solution heat treatment and ageing to reach the required temper such as T4, T6 or T651. These steps enhance the mechanical properties of the alloy 2014 and are key to achieving high performance.
Cold finishing / straightening
For square bar stock requiring tight tolerances and superior surface finish, cold drawing or straightening may be employed. This ensures that 2014 Aluminium Square Bars meet precise dimensional requirements.
Surface finishing & inspection
Surface treatments such as bright‐polishing, sand‐blasting or coating (where required) are applied. Comprehensive inspection including chemical analysis (PMI/IGC), mechanical testing, and dimensional checks ensure that each lot of Aluminium 2014 Square Bars complies with customer specifications and industry standards.
Packaging & dispatch
The bars are securely packaged—typically in wood crates, bundles or pallets with steel/wood bands—to protect the bars during transit. Each shipment includes material certification, inspection reports and packaging documentation.
Applications of 2014 Aluminium Square Bars
The unique combination of high strength, good machinability and precise dimensional control make 2014 Aluminium Square Bars especially valuable in demanding industries. Some key applications include:
Aerospace & aviation: Alloy 2014 is widely used in aircraft fittings, fuselage frames, wing spars, landing gear components and other structural parts.
Automotive & heavy transport: For components requiring high strength but weight savings, e.g., in frames, chassis, high‐stress brackets.
General engineering & tooling: Precision machined parts, jigs, fixtures and components where square bar stock is preferred for accurate finish and shape.
Oil & gas / petrochemical: Structural supports, pipe fittings, high‐stress mounting elements in harsh environments.
Marine & defence: Components exposed to dynamic loads where high strength aluminium square bars deliver benefits over heavier steel alternatives.
If your project mandates high-performance bar stock and you require reliable supply of Aluminium 2014 Square Bars or 2014 Aluminium Square Bars, Metalco is well positioned to deliver.
