Perhaps there should be some information on this. --petebachant 19:31, 17 July 2013 (UTC) []It basically isn't weldable, though a bit of work with friction-stir welding of 7075-0 is showing that there may be some promise along those lines.
It is produced in many tempers, some of which are 7075-0, 7075-T6, 7075-T651. The first 7075 was developed in secret by a Japanese company, Sumitomo Metal, in 1935, [3] but reverse engineered by Alcoa in 1943, after examining a captured Japanese aircraft. [4] 7075 was standardized for aerospace use in 1945.
It can not be weldable (in some cases, tungsten inert gas welding can applied). Chemical Composition. No Element [1] Content (%) 1: Aluminium: 88.7 2: Zinc: 7.6 3:
It is weldable only through friction welding, and has average machinability. Due to poor corrosion resistance, it is often clad with aluminium or Al-1Zn for protection, although this may reduce the fatigue strength. [1] [2] In older systems of terminology, 2XXX series alloys were known as duralumin, and this alloy was named 24ST.
Many metals and thermoplastics can be welded, but some are easier to weld than others (see Rheological weldability). A material's weldability is used to determine the welding process and to compare the final weld quality to other materials. Weldability is often hard to define quantitatively, so most standards define it qualitatively.

7005 is an aluminium wrought alloy [1] used in bicycle frames. Due to its relative ease of welding, it does not require expensive heat treating.It is, however, harder to form, making manufacture more challenging. [2]
7475 alloy can not be welded. It has more spring back because of its strength. It has high machinability. [citation needed] Chemical composition. Element [1]
