Technology - 7050 T6 Aluminum

7050 is a high-grade aerospace aluminum alloy known for its excellent blend of strength, toughness and resistance to stress corrosion cracking. It offers better toughness and corrosion resistance than 7075, which makes it an ideal choice for high-performance inline frames.

The T6 temper means the frame has been solution heat treated and artificially aged to increase the hardness and overall durability of the metal. During this tempering process, the extrusion is held in a special jig to prevent any twisting and to ensure precise alignment.
