ASTM F468 Aluminum 7075-T73 Fasteners are nonferrous aluminum fasteners manufactured from 7075 aluminum alloy in the T73 temper. They include bolts, hex cap screws, socket head cap screws, and studs designed for general-service applications where high strength, low weight, and the performance of aluminum are required. Under ASTM F468, 7075 aluminum is identified as UNS A97075, with the T73 condition specified as solution treated and stabilized.
We supply ASTM F468 Grade 7075-T73 Bolts, Aluminum 7075-T73 Hex Head Cap Screws, stud bolts, socket head cap screws, and other configurations to customer requirements.
What Are ASTM F468 Aluminum 7075-T73 Fasteners?
ASTM F468 Aluminum 7075-T73 Fasteners are precision-made nonferrous fasteners produced from 7075 aluminum alloy and supplied in the T73 temper. ASTM F468 covers commercial wrought nonferrous bolts, hex cap screws, studs, and several socket head cap screw configurations for general use. The specification includes aluminum, copper, nickel, and titanium alloy fasteners.
7075 aluminum is an aluminum-zinc alloy known for its high strength-to-weight ratio. The T73 temper is a stabilized condition designed to provide a useful balance of mechanical strength and resistance to stress-corrosion cracking compared with higher-strength tempers.
These fasteners are a practical choice when reducing component weight is important without moving to a much lower-strength fastening material.

ASTM F468 Grade 7075-T73 Bolts Types
We manufacture and supply different ASTM F468 Grade 7075-T73 Bolts and related fastener configurations according to application, dimensions and customer requirements.
➤ 7075-T73 Aluminum Hex Head Cap Screws
7075-T73 Aluminum Hex Head Cap Screws have a six-sided head that allows installation using a standard wrench or socket. They are commonly selected for structural and equipment assemblies where weight reduction and high-strength aluminum construction are beneficial.
➤ ASTM F468 AL 7075-T73 Stud Bolts
ASTM F468 AL 7075-T73 Stud Bolts are threaded fasteners used with nuts for assembling flanges, covers, housings and other components. Studs can be supplied with different thread lengths and configurations based on the application.
➤ Aluminum 7075-T73 Socket Head Cap Screws
Socket head cap screws provide a compact head design and are useful where installation space is limited. Their internal hex drive allows controlled tightening while maintaining a relatively small external profile.
➤ ASTM F468 7075-T73 Bolts
These include standard and customized bolt configurations manufactured to specified dimensions, thread forms, lengths and head styles. Material certification and inspection documentation can be provided when required.
