Aluminum 2007 vs 2419
Aluminum · grade comparison
Aluminum 2007 and 2419 are both aluminum grades. 2419 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 350 MPa (50.8 ksi) against 300 MPa (43.5 ksi) for 2007, about 17% more; tensile strength follows at 455 MPa (66 ksi) vs 390 MPa (56.6 ksi). 2419 is harder — 130 HB against 115 HB for 2007 — which matters for wear surfaces and threads. 2419 runs hotter in service (175°C vs 120°C continuous) and 2007 conducts heat better (135 W/m·K vs 120 W/m·K). On the shop floor, 2007 machines more easily (excellent vs very good), 2419 welds better (very good vs poor), and 2419 forms better (fair vs poor).
2007Choose it when the part is machined in volume, or when cost is the deciding factor.
2419Choose it when strength drives the design, or when surface hardness matters.
2007 vs 2419: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all aluminum grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.
