Aluminum 2618 AMS 4132

AMS 4132 is an aerospace material specification covering Aluminum Alloy 2618 supplied in forging form. This specification defines the required chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment conditions, dimensional tolerances, and inspection requirements for Aluminum 2618 used in high-strength, high-temperature aerospace applications.

Aluminum 2618 under AMS 4132 is valued for its ability to retain mechanical strength at elevated temperatures where many other aluminum alloys experience performance degradation. The alloy’s composition, which includes copper, magnesium, iron, and nickel, contributes to excellent toughness and resistance to thermal fatigue in demanding service environments.

AMS 4132 material is typically supplied in closed-die forgings, rings, and custom forged shapes, and is commonly used in aerospace structural components, propulsion-related parts, and other applications requiring reliable performance under thermal and mechanical stress.

Due to its lower corrosion resistance relative to general-purpose aluminum alloys, Aluminum 2618 to AMS 4132 is generally used in controlled environments or with protective finishes where required.

Tech Steel & Materials supplies Aluminum 2618 to AMS 4132 with full material traceability, certifications, and inspection documentation to meet aerospace and engineering requirements.
