Technical Data Sheet for Aluminium and Titanium Fasteners

ALUMINIUM* Material: 7075T6 anodised aluminium, 60% weight saving over steel Benefits: Non-corrosive, lightweight, attractive product Application: For securing and attaching in low stress areas only Torque: Thread diameter 5mm 6mm 8mm Maximum torque 2.5Nm 5Nm 10Nm
TITANIUM*         Material: 6AL-4V grade Titanium, 42% weight saving over steel yet stronger than grade 8.8 high tensile steel. (Strength between 8.8 and 10.9 steel) Benefits: Strength, corrosion and oxidation resistance, lightweight, attractive Application: For securing and attaching where a high tensile strength is required Torque: Thread diameter 5mm 6mm 8mm 10mm Maximum torque 6.9Nm 11.1Nm 28.3Nm 37.6Nm
ANODISED PRODUCTS     The electro chemical process used to apply the colouration to anodised products is between 8 and 12 microns deep, so it is possible to scratch through this coloured protection layer if not careful. Clean with detergent water and a soft cloth.
* On installation, threads on both Aluminium and Titanium fasteners MUST be lubricated to prevent galling.
