I am working with plans circa 1963 that call out 7075 T6 1" angle.
Anyone know if it's still manufactured? Don't see it in ACS or Wicks.
Thanks,

Try Teirnay Metals. I don't have one of their catalogs anymore. but
they supposedly stock virtually every extrusion ever used by the
major manufacturers. We used to order lots of different size angles
and channels when we were modifying Falcon 20's.

Be very careful using 7075T6 for major structural applications. It has
great strength/weight properties, but is VERY notch sensitive and
corrosion-prone.

Be sure to deburr ALL holes and make sure that there are no sudden
changes in cross-section and thoroughly corrosion-proof the material.
