After closing our Aircraft Maintenance Organisation in 2014 due the prohibitive rentals and regulations we moved to our own premises off Lanseria Airport and concentrated on material and fastener sales.

Alclad’s management team has over 75 years’ experience in the aviation industry and with that knowledge we are capable of locating the full range of aluminium, stainless, and aerospace alloys.

We have agreements with large suppliers in the USA with multiple machine capabilities for all of your metal needs. All materials are from approved vendors and supplied with full certification and traceability.

Our dedication to excellence and technical advancement remains unchanged for years. Our beliefs of long-term partnerships continue to bring value to the customer and stability to the company.

2024 is a solution heat teat treated aluminium alloy , with copper as the primary alloying element. It is used in applications requiring high strength to weight ratio, as well as good fatigue resistance. Due to poor corrosion resistance, sheets are often clad with aluminium for protection. It is available in sheet, plate, bar, tube and extrusions.

6061 is a precipitation-hardened aluminium alloy , containing magnesium and silicon as its major alloying elements. It has good mechanical properties, exhibits good weldability , and is very commonly extruded . It is one of the most common alloys of aluminium for general-purpose use. It is available in sheet, plate, bar, tube and extrusions.

7075 is a solution heat teat treated aluminium alloy , with zinc as the primary alloying element. It is strong, with strength comparable to many steels, and has good fatigue strength and average machinability. It has lower resistance to corrosion than many other Al alloys, but has significantly better corrosion resistance than the 2000 alloys. Its relatively high cost limits its use to applications where cheaper alloys are not suitable. It is available in sheet, plate, bar, tube and extrusions.
