Product details

6061 aluminum

6061 is a heat treatable alloy with good formability, weldability, machinability and workability. It also has medium strength and can maintain good operability after annealing.

The main alloying elements of 6061 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, and form Mg2Si phase.If it contains a certain amount of manganese and chromium, it can neutralize the bad effects of iron;Sometimes a small amount of copper or zinc is added to improve the strength of the alloy without significantly reducing its corrosion resistance.There is also a small amount of copper in conductive materials to offset the adverse effect of titanium and iron on conductivity;Zirconium or titanium can refine grain and control recrystallization structure.Lead and bismuth can be added to improve the machinability.Mg2Si is solidly dissolved in aluminum to give the alloy the function of artificial aging hardening.The main alloying elements in 6061 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, with medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability and good oxidation effect.

Alcoa 6061-t651 is the main alloy of 6-series alloy, which is a high-quality aluminum alloy product after heat treatment and pre-stretching process.Alcoa 6061 has excellent processing performance, good corrosion resistance, high toughness and processing without deformation, easy color film, excellent oxidation effect and other excellent characteristics.

Chemical composition

Cu :0.15 ~ 0.4 Mn :0.15 Mg :0.8 ~ 1.2 Zn :0.25

Cr :0.04 ~ 0.35 Ti :0.15 Si :0.4 ~ 0.8 Fe :0.7 Al: allowance

Main USES:

It mainly contains magnesium and silicon, so it concentrates the advantages of 4000 series and 5000 series.Good serviceability, easy coating, good processing, requiring a certain strength and high corrosion resistance of various industrial structures, such as the manufacture of trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, railway vehicles.
