Aluminum 6082-T651
Material type: Metal, Corrosion resistance, Non-magnetic
Aluminum 6082-T651 (CNC) has very similar composition and properties to 6061, with slightly higher tensile strength. Compliant with British Standards.
Process compatibility
Material Color
Silver white
Material advantages
It has high strength, excellent machinability and good weldability, and is suitable for the aerospace, automotive and construction industries.
Material shortcomings
The weld has high sensitivity to cracks and limited formability. It is not suitable for parts with extremely high loads and high rigidity requirements.
Recommended description
The 6082-T651 has a higher strength than 6061-T6. It undergoes pre-stretching to eliminate the residual stress from quenching, and the CNC precision processing of thick plates ensures good dimensional stability. It has excellent corrosion resistance and anodizing performance. Compared with 7075, its cost performance is superior. It is suitable for high-precision medium-high load large plate, thick plate structural components and tooling fixtures.
