I believe it is 7075, as opposed to the 6061 used in most aluminium torches. It's harder, but maybe slightly more brittle.

I guess I should have been more specific, is it 7075-T0 or 7075-T6? Something else?

It's almost surely T6 or T561

I thought a minute and emailed the manufacturer. Manufacturer says.....

7075-T6

Looks like I'm gonna have to free up some funds for a new light :devil:
