2024-T851 is a precipitation-hardened aluminum-copper alloy (4.4% Cu, 1.5% Mg, 0.6% Mn) that combines high strength with controlled ductility through solution treatment, controlled cold work, and stress relief; primary applications include aircraft fuselage skin, wing components, and structural fasteners requiring fatigue resistance and damage tolerance in the -65°F to +250°F service range.
