The paper gives the results of studying the effect of various heat treatment operations on the structure and mechanical properties
of the base metal and welded joints of sheet aluminium alloy of V1341 grade 1.2 mm thick, produced by manual nonconsumable
electrode argon-arc welding. The dependence is established between the structural state of the metal of welded joints of this
alloy on the kind of heat treatment that affects the level of strength and ductility. A significant effect of improvement of the
structure and mechanical properties is achieved, when conducting complete heat treatment, which includes quenching and
artificial ageing of the alloy and its joints. Compared to artificial ageing modes, this kind of heat treatment allows producing a
stable metal structure, characterized by smaller dimensions of phase precipitates and inclusions, that promotes increase of the
strength level, under the condition of preservation of the ductility values. 8 Ref., 2 Tab., 4 Fig.
