Abstract:
The disclosure provides for plate having a thickness of at least 80 mm comprising aluminium alloy as a percentage by weight %: Cu: 2.0-6.0; Li: 0.5-2.0; Mg: 0-1.0; Ag: 0-0.7; Zn 0-1.0; and at least one element selected from Zr, Mn, Cr, Sc, Hf and Ti, the amount of said element, if selected, being 0.05 to 0.20 wt % for Zr, 0.05 to 0.8% wt % t for Mn, 0.05 to 0.3 wt % for Cr and for Sc, 0.05 to 0.5 wt % Hf and 0.01 to 0.15% wt % for Ti, Si≤0.1; Fe≤0.1; others ≤0.05 each and ≤0.15 in total, wherein the aged state logarithmic fatigue mean measured at mid-thickness in the LT direction on smooth specimens with a maximum stress amplitude of 242 MPa, a frequency of 50 Hz, a stress ratio of R=0.1 of at least 250,000 cycles.
