Al alloy has high strength, fatigue at high temperatures.(Metals)
An aluminum alloy said to have a 15% higher temperature tolerance than other aluminum alloys and excellent fatigue behavior even at temperatures around 200[degrees]C (400[degrees]F) has reportedly been developed for aircraft brake assemblies by Otto Fuchs KG, Germany. The alloy was developed for Messier-Bugatti, France, for its carbon brake systems. Its high-temperature and fatigue properties make it ideal as part of an aircraft carbon brake and wheel assembly. Carbon brakes offer constant performance hot or cold, are unaffected by thermal shock or mechanical fatigue, and offer ...
