Abstract: A method for thermomechanical treatment of wrought products made of a 2000 series aluminum alloy comprising, in % by weight, Cu 3.5-5.8; Mg 0.2-1.5; Mn≤0.9; Fe≤0.15; Si≤0.15; Zr≤0.25; Ag≤0.8; Zn≤0.8; Ti 0.02-0.15; unavoidable impurities≤0.05 each and ≤0.15 total; remainder aluminum, enabling an improvement in the resistance to corrosion under stress. It includes a tempering consisting of two sequences. The first sequence is defined by a maximum temperature T1max comprised between 130° C. and 180° C. and by a hold time at a temperature comprised between 130° C. and 180° C. which equates to an equivalent duration t1eq160+ C. calculated at 160° C. comprised between 10 h and 80 h. The second sequence is defined by a temperature T2° C.(t) lower than T1max and a hold time t2 at a temperature comprised between 100° C. and 130° C., which equates to an equivalent time t2eq160° C. calculated at 160° C. such that t2eq160° comprised between 0.3% and 15% of the equivalent duration t1eq160° calculated for the first sequence.
