Aluminum elastic joint

[Marcuz1990]

Good evening to all,
I would like to ask for quick technical information:

What kind of aluminium is used for the manufacture of elastic joints?

I saw that the 1000 series has low mechanical resistance while the 2000 series has high resistance, so I would be willing to use a 2000 series to be sure.
Anyway, I was wondering if it could be enough to cover a range from 200 to 400 nm of torque.
have come that we design for applications of machines with motors that have a high torque and I wanted to know what kind of alloy you would use.
thank you and good evening to all

how do we tell you whether a material is good rather than another if we do not know the durable section, operating conditions, environmental conditions in which the component operates, etc.?

I would honestly understand those who build and sell specialized companies. the joints will certainly not be drilled rounds and just.
Have you tried to see what the market offers?
there are many international specialized companies.
if you plan joints you imagine you have company know-how....is it wrong?
Won't you just do it? !

competitors use en aw 2017.
certainly that if you want top of range you on series 6xxx and 7xxx.

for the realization of elastic joints, the alloy 6061 aluminum is commonly used.

this alloy is renowned for its high mechanical strength, good workability and resilience.

It is particularly suitable for applications requiring high tensile and corrosion resistance, such as elastic joints used in the automotive, aerospace and naval industry.

clearly costs more than the 2xxx series.

I would also go with a commercial: risk of inventing hot water...
