What is the difference between 6061-t6 and 6061-t651 round bars (rods)

The main alloying elements in 6061-t6 aluminum round bar(rod) are magnesium and silicon, which have medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability, and good oxidation effect. It is widely used in various industrial structures requiring certain strength and high antibacterial corrosion. The main chemical components are: Cu0.15-0.4-, Si0.4-0.8, Fe0.7-, Mn0.15-, Mg0. 8-1.2-, Zn0.25-, Cr0.04-0.35-, Ti0.15-,.The difference between 6061 T6  aluminum round bars and 6061 T651  aluminum round bars is that under normal circumstances, the internal stress of T6 will be relatively large, and the processing will be deformed. The processing state should be T651. He is stretching on the basis of T6 to eliminate internal stress.

 

    The main alloying elements of the 6061-T6 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon and form the Mg2Si phase. If it contains a certain amount of manganese and chromium, it can neutralize the bad effect of iron; sometimes it also adds a small amount of copper or zinc to increase the strength of the alloy without significantly reducing its corrosion resistance; there is also a small amount of conductive material The copper is used to offset the adverse effects of titanium and iron on electrical conductivity; zirconium or titanium can refine grains and control recrystallized structure; in order to improve the machinability, lead and tantalum can be added. The solid solution of Mg2Si in aluminum makes the alloy have an artificial age hardening function. The main alloying elements in 6061 aluminum round bars are magnesium and silicon, which have medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability, and good oxidation effect.

    6061-T651 aluminum round bar(rod)  is the main alloy of the 6 series alloys, and is a high-quality aluminum alloy product after heat treatment pre-stretching process;  6061 has excellent processing properties, good corrosion resistance, high toughness, and no distortion after processing. Easy to paint film, excellent oxidation and other excellent features.

 

    Main application: It is widely used in various industrial structures requiring certain strength and corrosion resistance, such as manufacturing trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, and railway vehicles.
