AZ80 Magnesium Alloy Supplier 

AZ80 magnesium alloy is a high-strength magnesium alloy mainly used for extrusion and simple designed forgings.With its low density and higher strength level than conventional AZ31, AZ80 is well suited for lightweight structural parts, extruded profiles, machined components, and performance-oriented applications.

It consists of the following elements: magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn). TThe chemical composition (mass fraction %) of the AZ80 magnesium alloy:

The AZ80 alloy possesses excellent mechanical properties, including:

Tensile strength: 380 MPa

Yield strength (0.200% strain): 275 MPa

Shear strength: 165 MPa

Compressive yield strength (0.2% offset): 240 MPa

Elastic modulus: 44.8 GPa

Poisson's ratio: 0.35

Elongation at fracture: 7%

Additionally, the AZ80 alloy also exhibits good thermal properties such as thermal expansion coefficient and thermal conductivity.

Why AZ80

AZ80 offers a practical balance of low weight, strength, and manufacturability.

It is a strong choice when reducing component weight is important, but a general-purpose magnesium alloy does not provide enough strength.

Typical applications include:

• Lightweight structural components

• Automotive and mobility parts

• UAV and aerospace components

• Sporting equipment

• Precision machined parts

• Extruded profiles and structural sections

Key Advantages

Lightweight

With a density of approximately 1.8 g/cm³, AZ80 provides a significant weight advantage for applications where every gram matters.

Higher Strength

AZ80 offers substantially higher strength than commonly used AZ31 wrought magnesium, making it suitable for more demanding structural applications.

Suitable for Wrought Processing

AZ80 can be processed through controlled extrusion and other thermomechanical processes to produce bars, profiles, tubes, and customized sections.

Good Foundation for Precision Components

With appropriate material condition and machining control, AZ80 can be used for CNC-machined lightweight components requiring defined dimensional and inspection requirements.

Typical AZ80 Applications

Lightweight Structural Parts

Where reducing mass while maintaining structural strength is a priority.

Extruded Components

For bars, profiles, tubes, and customized sections.

CNC-Machined Components

For projects requiring lightweight metal components with controlled dimensions and geometry.

Performance Equipment

For sporting, outdoor, mobility, and other applications where weight reduction provides a practical advantage.

Custom Extrusion

Custom dimensions and profiles according to engineering drawings and production requirements.

CNC Machining

Precision machining of AZ80 components from supplied or Aikerly-produced material.

Inspection

Dimensional inspection, mechanical testing, material documentation, and customer-specific inspection requirements.

OEM Manufacturing

From prototype quantities to production programs, depending on component geometry and volume.

Engineering Considerations

AZ80 is a strong material, but the right processing condition matters.

For each project, Aikerly considers:

• Required mechanical properties

• Component geometry

• Loading direction

• Extrusion or forming requirements

• Machining requirements

• Corrosion environment

• Surface treatment

• Dimensional tolerances

• Inspection requirements

This is particularly important for magnesium components because processing condition and component design can have a significant effect on final performance.

AZ80 or Another Magnesium Alloy?

AZ80 is generally considered when strength requirements are higher than those of AZ31, while the low density of magnesium remains an important design objective.

Depending on the application, Aikerly can also evaluate:

AZ31 · AZ61 · AZ80 · ZK60 · AZ91D · WE43

The right choice depends on the component—not simply the highest nominal strength.
