Aluminum 7050 AMS 4050

AMS 4050 is an aerospace material specification covering Aluminum Alloy 7050 supplied in plate form. The specification defines requirements for chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment condition, dimensional tolerances, and inspection to ensure consistent performance in demanding aerospace and defense applications.

Aluminum 7050 is specifically engineered for high-strength applications involving thick plate, where resistance to stress corrosion cracking and uniform mechanical properties through the cross section are critical. Compared to other high-strength aluminum alloys, 7050 provides improved durability in heavy sections while maintaining excellent strength-to-weight performance.

Material supplied to AMS 4050 is commonly used for structural aerospace components, including bulkheads, fittings, and other high-load parts that require controlled processing and full material traceability.

Tech Steel & Materials supplies AMS 4050 Aluminum 7050 plate with complete material certifications and traceability. Value-added services such as cut-to-size plate, machining support, and specialized packaging are available to meet program and shipment requirements.
