Magnesium Lithium Alloy Laz933– Lightweight, High-Strength, Corrosion-Resistant

Product Description

Magnesium Lithium Alloy LAZ933

Product introduction:
LAZ933 is a typical commercial magnesium-lithium alloy with low density, medium strength, good shaping and good corrosion resistance. The density is equivalent to plastic, rigidity and toughness are much higher than plastics, and it has excellent shock absorption, damping and plasticity. It can be applied to sound film foil and is one of the most effective materials for weight reduction in aerospace metal materials. It can be applied to secondary load-bearing parts and various boxes and shells, such as electronic chassis shells, optical instrument structural parts, skins, dashboards, satellite rivets, honeycomb panels, heat pipes, notebook shells, mobile phone shells, sighting devices and the shell, etc.
