AZ*1B is a
magnesium base alloy with good room-temperature strength and
ductility combined with corrosion resistance and weldability.
Increased strength is obtained by strain hardening with a
subsequent partial anneal (H*4 and H*6
tempers).
SIZE
RANGE: Sheet: thickness
from 1mm to 6mm; Max. width is **0mm; Max. length is
***0mm; Plate: thickness
from 6 mm to **0mm; Max. width is ***0mm; Max. length is
***0mm; Block: We can
supply cut-to-size blocks according to customer\'s
requirements. Coil: thickness

APPLICATIONS Sheet and plate
in AZ*1B find application in medium strength service at
temperatures below **0°C. Diverse uses including aerospace,
aircraft, concrete tools, 3C (cell phone / camera / computer),
speaker cones and textile machinery can all benefit from light
weight AZ*1B. AZ*1B is
non-magnetic and has high electrical and thermal conductivity
filling the requirements for RFI and EMI shielding in the
electronics and computer industries. Superplastic
forming of AZ*1B sheet at elevated temperatures allows production
of a wide variety of intricate parts for automotive uses. Monocoque
construction utilizing formed sheet can be adapted to many
commercial applications.
