Why choose 2024 Aluminium Square Bars?
The alloy commonly referred to as 2024 (UNS A92024, AlCu4Mg1) is a high-strength 2xxx-series aluminium alloy with copper as the major alloying element. Some of the key advantages that make 2024 square bars especially attractive:
High strength-to-weight ratio: 2024 alloy exhibits superior strength compared to many other aluminium alloys, making it ideal for structural components in aerospace, transport and heavy engineering.Â
Good fatigue resistance: Its ability to perform under cyclical stresses lends it to applications where durability matters.Â
Excellent machinability (in the right temper): Machining and finishing of square bars made of this alloy is efficient when proper tooling is used.Â
Versatile finishing and processing: 2024 square bars can be supplied in various tempers, finishes and sizes to meet diverse application needs.Â
That said, it’s worth noting the alloy’s relative corrosion resistance is less than certain 5xxx or 6xxx-series alloys. In many applications it is clad or surface-treated to improve corrosion behaviour.
Our Capabilities – From Manufacturer to Supplier
At Metalco Extrusions Global LLP, as a trusted 2024 Aluminium Square Bars Manufacturer and 2024 Aluminium Square Bars Supplier, we cover the full lifecycle of supply:
• Raw-material procurement & metallurgy
We source high-quality ingots and apply rigorous metallurgical control for the 2024 alloy chemistry, ensuring consistency in copper, magnesium, manganese and other elements as per relevant standards. For example typical composition limits: Cu 3.8-4.9 %, Mg 1.2-1.8 %, Mn 0.3-0.9 %, Si & Fe <0.5%.Â
• Forming and extrusion / rolling
We manufacture square bars via hot-rolled, cold-finished or extruded routes depending on customer requirements. We can provide square section sizes from small cross-sections up to large dimensions, temper conditions like T3, T6, T651 etc.
• Finishing & certification
Surface finishes: mill-bright, polished, sand-blasted, hair-line, checkered or embossed. Finishing treatments such as anodising or protective coatings can be applied. Material test certificates, chemical & mechanical test reports are available.Â
• Supply chain & logistics
As a full-scale 2024 Aluminium Square Bars Supplier, we stock ready-to-ship inventory, offer custom length cutting, bundling, packaging (wooden crates, steel-banded bundles) and export globally. Our customer service supports everything from enquiry to delivery.
