Materion SupremEX® 215XK MMC Aluminum - Silicon Carbide Metal Matrix Composite, T6 CWQ, Billet
Categories: Metal; Metal Matrix Composite; Nonferrous Metal; Aluminum Alloy

Material Notes: SupremEX® 215XK MMC is a high quality, aerospace-grade aluminum alloy (2009) reinforced with 15 vol.% silicon carbide particles. This composite material is manufactured via powder metallurgy using a mechanical alloying process to ensure a homogeneous reinforcement distribution, providing a refined grain structure and enhancing mechanical properties. SupremEX 215XK is heat treatable, offering high strength and modulus for structural applications. It is available in billet, forged and extruded forms. Designation: – 2009/SiC/15p (5 µm).

Benefits

  • Weight saving versus titanium alloys
  • High fatigue and fretting fatigue resistance
  • Increased modulus versus aluminum alloys
  • Hardness, wear resistance and low friction characteristics
  • Good machinability using conventional techniques
  • Homogenous and stable microstructure
