> The T stands for temper and has nothing to do with forging. You mentioned Al alloy and aircraft, that almost automatically leads to forged Al. You also mentioned something about "treatment" and "proper treatment" and some such. That is vague enough for you to mention but the aircraft alloys do not go by "T". Alloy part is usually classified by 4 digit numbers, not by T. So, everything is plausibly mixed up as usual. Tempering has nothing to do with the "alloy" but in fact also used for the post machining stress relief of forged materials. But I have absolutely no intention to get involved in the pissing contest with you. I just wish to keep you in check so that you do not spread the wrong and misleading info on things you really do not know, but picked up from the net. Good night, ken
