Aluminium Alloy BS L159 2014A-T6 Sheet
Technical Data Sheet
Aluminium alloy BS L159 is the aerospace specification for 2014A-T4 bare sheet and strip. L159 is the same alloy and temper as L157, and will always meet the chemistry and mechanical requirements for both, but is produced to tighter rolling tolerances. L159 / 2014A is alloyed with copper (3.90-5.00%) giving it high strength levels of 400 N/mm² UTS minimum. As such L159 finds usage in many aerospace and defence high strength applications where is poor corrosion resistance is not a factor. Aircraft Materials stocks L159 in a wide range of sheet thicknesses ready for same day shipment. Many stock items can be dual-certified to both L157 and L159.
