Aluminum Angle

Catalog Image

Aluminum angle is an L-shaped aluminum structural profile commonly used in aerospace, defense, and industrial applications where strength, rigidity, and weight efficiency are required. It’s defined by its geometric shape, not by a single alloy or chemistry, and is typically produced with equal or unequal leg lengths depending on application requirements.

The appropriate specification is selected based on performance needs, loading conditions, and certification requirements rather than the shape alone.

Common Applications of Aluminum Angle

Aluminum angle is commonly used in applications such as:

  • Structural framing and supports
  • Aerospace ground support equipment
  • Aircraft and defense structural assemblies
  • Industrial fixtures and brackets
  • High-strength fabricated components

The specific alloy and specification selected depend on the mechanical performance, weight limitations, and environmental conditions of the application.

FAQ

Is aluminum angle defined by alloy or specification?

Aluminum angle is typically supplied to specific material or structural specifications, such as AMS standards. The applicable specification governs mechanical properties, heat treatment, and inspection requirements.

What specifications are used for aluminum angle?

Aluminum angle is commonly supplied to AMS structural specifications, including AMS 10133A, AMS 10134A, and AMS 10135A, depending on performance and application requirements.

What industries use aluminum angle?

Aluminum angle is used in aerospace, defense, industrial manufacturing, structural framing, and fabricated assemblies where strength and weight efficiency are important.

Can aluminum angle be supplied with certifications?

Yes. Aluminum angle can be supplied with full material certifications and traceability in accordance with the governing specification.
