Clad 7475 is a high-strength aluminum-zinc-magnesium alloy with copper alloying used primarily in aircraft structures and aerospace applications requiring damage-tolerance and fatigue resistance. The material is clad with pure aluminum for enhanced corrosion resistance and offers yield strengths ranging from approximately 380–505 MPa depending on temper, with excellent fracture toughness characteristics across multiple overaged and retrogressed-and-reaged temper conditions.
