Alclad is a corrosion resistant aluminium sheet formed from high purity aluminium surface layers metallurgically bonded rolled onto to high strength aluminium alloy core material. Cladding is the bonding together of dissimilar metals it is different from fusion welding or gluing as a method to fasten the metals together. Not all aircraft sheet aluminum is clad especially those alloy sheets from which small brackets gussets and fittings are made.

While 2024 aluminum was initially designed for structural components in aircraft it s now widely used when a high strength to weight ratio is needed such as for gears shafts and fasteners. The united states mint uses cladding to manufacture coins from different metals. Typical uses for 2024t3 alclad aluminum sheet are aircraft skins cowls aircraft structures and also for rv repair and restoration like airstreams because of its shiny finish 2024t3 alclad 208. Ryerson offers heat treatable aluminum sheet grades like the popular 6061 aluminum alloy that can be used for commercial applications that require strength corrosion resistance and machinability as well as non heat treatable grades when formability and weldability are priorities.

Steel aluminum stainless copper brass mdf particle board plywood acrylic plastic foam for over 50 years clad rex has been laminating vinyl to metal sheet and with the additional of a new state of the art coating system we are now able to apply any decorative film or high pressure laminate to any flat substrate. Cladding is often achieved by extruding two metals through a die as well as pressing or rolling sheets together under high pressure. It has a melting point of about 500 degrees celsius or 932 degrees fahrenheit. It offers similar performance to 7075 aluminum but it s not as strong.

Welding is generally not recommended on this aluminum sheet. Corrosion resistance and machinability are rated as fair though the addition of chromium provides good stress corrosion cracking resistance in 7075 aluminum sheet products. An example of clad aluminum is the surface of unpainted aircraft. This allows a cheaper metal to be used.

The pure aluminum is very soft and fabrication processes would severely damage or destroy the clad surfaces.
