Abstract :
Aluminum is one of the most widely used engineering materials used for
construction purposes because it is light and strong. The aluminum alloy requires a series
of processes to improve the strength of the material before it is used as an aircraft
structure material. The specimens in this research were heat treated with temperatures of
300?C, 350?C and 400?C and time hold 60 minutes, 90 minutes, and 120 minutes. Then,
the quenching process was carried out with oil medium. This test used hardness testing
brinell. From the results of the study, the highest hardness value occurred at an aging
temperature of 400?C for 90 minutes with a hardness value of
119.09 BHN. Based on the calculation, the brinell hardness value increased by 30.40%
from the brinell hardness value in the test specimen before being given aging treatment.
