Elektron® AZ61

Lightweight magnesium alloys.

These lightweight alloys are used as a base material from which you can machine components or custom shapes to integrate directly into a component.

We operate two dedicated presses to supply a full range of extruded magnesium alloys and we continue to develop new alloys for future applications.
