As an aviation-grade ultra-hard Al-Zn-Mg-Cu series alloy, 7075 aluminum plate has been the material of choice for high-end manufacturing since its introduction in the 1940s due to its exceptional mechanical properties. Current 7075 aluminum plate price is influenced by multiple factors including specifications, heat treatment states, and market supply-demand dynamics, yet its outstanding cost-performance ratio maintains its competitive edge in aerospace, precision molds, and other fields.
This alloy undergoes cold-treated forging processes, exhibiting strength and hardness far surpassing ordinary steel, making it one of the strongest commercially available aluminum alloys. Its fine-grained structure ensures excellent machinability (including superior drilling and threading characteristics) while providing fundamental corrosion resistance and ideal anodizing performance. After solution treatment, the material’s plasticity improves significantly, maintaining high strength properties in environments below 150°C along with remarkable low-temperature strength performance.
In the aviation industry, this material is widely used in aircraft load-bearing structures, including critical components like wing panels and fuselage frames. With advancements in manufacturing technology, its applications have expanded to high-end molds (ultrasonic welding molds, precision shoe molds), sports equipment (golf club heads, competition bicycle frames), and precision machining fields, fully demonstrating its value as a premium structural material.
The pricing of 7075 aluminum plates primarily depends on three dimensions:
1. Physical specifications (extra-wide/thick plates command premium pricing due to complex processing)
2. Heat treatment states (e.g., T6 temper costs 15-20% more than O temper)
3. Aluminum ingot futures market fluctuations (directly affecting raw material costs)
Special requirements like military-grade purity or custom sizes will further impact final transaction prices.
Leading domestic manufacturers like Mingtai Aluminum, through introducing German SMS rolling mills (maximum width 2600mm) and strict ultrasonic inspection processes, ensure products feature:
– Excellent dimensional stability (cutting deformation rate <0.3%)
– Uniform mechanical properties (hardness deviation ±2HB)
– Superior internal quality (zero impurity/void defects)
For purchasers, while monitoring 7075 aluminum plate market price fluctuations, greater emphasis should be placed on material batch consistency and suppliers’ quality control capabilities to ensure end-product reliability. Optimized procurement strategies (such as off-season stockpiling or bulk purchasing) can effectively control costs while guaranteeing quality.
