Tensile Strength: 45,000 psi (310 MPa) Yield Strength: 40,000 psi (276 MPa) Elongation: 8% |
Physical Properties: |
Density: 2.70 g/cm3 (0.0975 lb/in3) Melting Range: 580oC-650oC (1076oF-1202oF) |
Typical Uses: |
Structural components in aircraft and aerospace applications Automotive parts Bicycle frames Marine components Industrial machinery Sporting goods |
Welding: |
6061 is readily weldable using various welding methods, including gas metal arc welding (GMAW/MIG), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW/TIG), and resistance welding. It responds well to fusion and resistance welding processes. |
Corrosion Resistance: |
6061 has good corrosion resistance, especially in environments where it is exposed to moisture. However, it is not as corrosion-resistant as some other aluminum alloys like 5052 or 5083. |
Considerations |
6061 is known for its excellent machinability, making it suitable for applications where machining operations are required. It is widely used in extruded shapes, sheets, plates, and other forms. |
Alloy : 6061 Aluminium Alloy
Temper :
O H14 H24 H18 / T351 T3 T4 T651 T6 / H14 H24 H26 H16 / H32 H111 H321 H116 H112 / T6 T651 / T651 T6 T7451
T6: Solution heat-treated and artificially aged. This is the most common temper for 6061 extrusions, providing good strength and toughness.
T651: Solution heat-treated, stress-relieved by stretching, and artificially aged. Similar to T6 but with additional stress relief.
