Aluminum 6061 T4 Sheet is solution heat treated and naturally aged giving it slightly lower tolerance accuracy than Aluminum 6061 T6, which undergoes artificial aging. T4 is also slightly less expensive than T6 and has a slightly lower ultimate tensile strength and yield strength, with a higher elongation percentage, which increases the formability of the T4 temper. Aluminum sheet 6061 T4 is also cost friendlier and has improved formability over T6. Aluminum T4 is solution heat treated, and naturally aged to a substantially stable condition.
6063 is widely used as 6063 aluminum sheet sheet and 6063 aluminum profiles, so 6063 is applied in building profiles, irrigation tubes, vehicles, gantry, furniture, lifts, fences, etc. 6061 aluminum alloy is widely used as 6061 aluminum sheet sheet and 6061 aluminum coil, there are generally T6, T4 and T651, 6061 aluminum sheet has hardness of more than 95, so it is widely used in the machining industry. 6061 aluminum alloy can be applied in the place which requires a variety of industrial structures with high strength, weldability, and corrosion resistance, such as tubes, rodss, and shaped timber for trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, furniture, mechanical parts, precision machining, etc. During the applications, 6061 aluminum sheet is used more wide than 6063 aluminum because it has higher strength.
6061 TO aluminum sheet alloy is strong, easily machined, and weldable. Aluminum 6061 T6 alloys are doubled the strength of aluminum 6063 alloys. Aluminum 6061 has an ultimate tensile strength of at least 42,000 psi (290 MPa) and yield strength of at least 35,000 psi (241 MPa). In thicknesses of 0.250 inch (6.35 mm) or less, it has elongation of 8% or more; in thicker sections, it has elongation of 10%. T651 temper has similar mechanical properties. The famous Pioneer plaque was made of this particular alloy. Order 6061 Aluminum Sheets in 6061 Aluminum in small quantities and no minimums of all Aluminum 6061 at The Metal Store.
