6061 aluminum hex bar

The main alloy elements of 6061 aluminum hex bar are magnesium and silicon, and form the Mg2Si phase. It is an Al-Mg-Si series alloy with medium strength, good plasticity and excellent corrosion resistance. In particular, there is no tendency to stress corrosion cracking, its weldability is excellent, corrosion resistance and cold workability are good, 6061 hexagonal aluminum rod is a promising alloy with a wide range of use. It can be anodized and colored, or it can be painted with enamel, suitable for building decoration materials. It contains a small amount of Cu, so the strength is higher than 6063, but the quenching sensitivity is also higher than 6063. After quenching, air quenching cannot be achieved. It needs to be re-solutionized and quenched to achieve higher strength.

6061 aluminum hex bar is a high-quality aluminum alloy product after heat treatment pre-stretching process; although its strength cannot be compared with the 2XXX series and the 7XXX series, its magnesium and silicon alloys have many characteristics, with excellent processing performance and excellent welding characteristics And electroplating, good corrosion resistance, high toughness and no deformation after processing, the material is dense and defect-free, easy to polish, easy to paint film, excellent oxidation effect and other excellent features.
 The main purpose of 6061 aluminum hex bar : widely used in various industrial structural parts that require a certain strength and high corrosion resistance, such as the manufacture of trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, and railway vehicles. Representative applications include aerospace fixtures, electrical fixtures, and communications. They are also widely used in automated machinery parts, precision machining, mold manufacturing, electronics and precision instruments, SMT, PC board solder carriers, etc.
