OTHER PROPERTIES
Typical Hadness
O temper: 67 Rockwell E
H24 temper: 83 Rockwell E
WELDABILITY
Excellent weldability with gas shielded arc using AZ61A (preferred) or AZ92A filler rod; post weld stress relief is required to prevent stress corrosion cracking. Resistance welding is excellent.
MACHINING
AZ31B, like all
magnesium alloy plate and sheet, machines faster than any other metal. Providing the geometry of the part allows, the limiting factor is the power and speed of the machine rather than the quality of the tool material. The power required per cubic centimeter of metal removed varies from 9 to 14 watts per minute depending on machining operation.
DENT RESISTANCE
Weight for weight, AZ31B-H24 has proven to be superior to competitive materials in its resistance to denting at moderate energy levels.
