http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_alloy

you will probably need to read this to make more sense of the info on work hardening:

Toodles....
I did google it, I got that it was about 1/2 has strong as 7075, but I wanted to know if it would work, or I needed to get somthing else

TY for the link to onlinemetals.com
