SupremEX® 620XF MMC is a high-quality aerospace grade aluminum alloy (6061B) reinforced with 20 vol.% silicon carbide particles. 620XF is manufactured via a powder metallurgy route using a mechanical alloying process to ensure a homogeneous reinforcement distribution. This provides a refined grain structure, enhancing mechanical properties. The MMC is heat treatable, offering high strength and modulus for structural applications, and is available in billet, forged and extruded forms. Designation: – 6061B/SiC/20p (0.7µm). Advantages - Precision section extrusion using standard dies, enabling weight saving through reduced wall thickness
- High stiffness and strength
- Robust and ductile for damage resistance
- Good corrosion and fatigue performance
- Thermally stable
