7475 aluminium alloy
Wrought aluminium zinc alloy
7475 aluminum alloy (Adirium) is a wrought alloy with high zinc weight percentage. It also contains magnesium, silicon and chromium.[1]
7475 alloy can not be welded. It has more spring back because of its strength. It has high machinability.[citation needed]
