Comparison of Aluminum Alloy 6082 and 6061
Time : 2023-07-04


6082 and 6061 belong to the Al-Mg-Si series of heat-treatable and strengthened aluminum alloys, with good extrusion processing and forging performance, good anodic oxidation and corrosion resistance. It has good formability, weldability, machinability, and medium strength. It can still maintain good operability after annealing. It is mainly used in mechanical structures, including bars, plates, pipes and profiles, etc. . This alloy has similar but not identical mechanical properties to 6061 alloy. Its T6 state has high mechanical properties. The O and T4 states of alloy 6082 are suitable for bending and forming, and its T5 and T6 states are suitable for good mechanical properties. Machinability requirements, some specific processing requires the use of chip separators or other special processes to help separate chips, widely used in mechanical parts, forgings, commercial vehicles, railway structural parts, shipbuilding, etc.

6082 aluminum alloy is a heat-treatable alloy with good formability, weldability, machinability and corrosion resistance. It also has medium strength and can maintain good operability after annealing. It is mainly used in machinery In terms of structure, it includes rods, plates, pipes and profiles. This alloy has similar but not identical mechanical properties to the 6061 alloy, and its -T6 state has higher mechanical properties. Aluminum alloy 6082 is a very commonly used aluminum alloy product in Europe, and it is also highly used in the United States. It is suitable for processing raw materials, seamless aluminum tubes, structural profiles and custom profiles, etc. 6082 aluminum alloy generally has very good processing characteristics and very good anodic reactivity. The most commonly used anodic reaction methods include removal of impurities and dyeing, coating, etc.
