Product Details

6061 Aluminum Metal Sheet

The 6061 aluminum plate is primarily composed of aluminum (over 97.9% by weight) and alloyed with magnesium (0.6% – 1.2%) and silicon (0.4% – 0.8%). These alloying elements contribute to its strength, corrosion resistance, and other desirable properties.

6061 aluminum sheets application include aerospace fixed devices, electrical fixed devices, communication fields, but also widely used in automatic mechanical parts, precision machining, mold manufacturing, electronics and precision instruments, SMT, PC board soldering vehicles and so on.

Custom 6061 Aluminum Plate States

Our 6061 aluminum sheet comes in various processing states, including T6, F, O, and T651:

  1. T6 state: After heat treatment, it exhibits extremely high strength, suitable for mechanical parts and structural components that need to withstand heavy loads.
  2. F state: Maintains its original form after cold working and is suitable for applications that do not require further processing.
  3. O state: After softening treatment, it has good plasticity and is suitable for parts with complex shapes.
  4. T651 state: Subjected to aging treatment on the basis of T6, it offers better flatness and dimensional stability, making it suitable for precision machining and mold manufacturing.

6061-T651 Aluminum

6061-T651 aluminum is a specific temper designation for aluminum alloy 6061. In the aluminum industry, temper designations indicate the processing and thermal treatment that the alloy has undergone to achieve specific properties. Here’s what 6061-T651 aluminum signifies:

  • 6061: This portion refers to the alloy itself, which is Aluminum Alloy 6061. Alloy 6061 is a widely used aluminum alloy known for its excellent mechanical properties and versatility in various applications.

  • T6: The “aluminum 6061 t6 sheet” temper designation in aluminum alloys indicates that the material has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged. This heat treatment process involves heating the alloy to a high temperature, quenching it in water, and then aging it to achieve maximum strength. T6 temper provides high strength and good formability.

  • T651: The “T651” temper is a stress-relieved version of the T6 temper. After the T6 treatment, the material is stretched to relieve internal stresses and ensure dimensional stability. This additional process further enhances the mechanical properties of the alloy, particularly in terms of strength and stress resistance.
