The AL3 alloy (aluminum-magnesium-silicon) is an advanced material developed by EV Group China engineers for the production of heavy-duty fasteners with a nominal thread diameter from M1.6 to M39. The chemical composition, based on the Mg-Si alloying system, ensures an optimal balance between the mechanical strength and ductility of the final product. Specialists at EV Group China confirm the exceptional fatigue resistance and outstanding corrosion resistance of this alloy in aggressive conditions, such as high humidity, marine climates, as well as mildly acidic and alkaline industrial environments.
