6082 Aluminum Sheet
6082 aluminum sheet is a relatively good alloy aluminum shee
6063 alloy aluminum plate is softer than 6061 alloy aluminum sheet. It has many magnesium and silicon alloy characteristics. It has the excellent characteristics of good processing performance, excellent welding characteristics and electroplating, good corrosion resistance, high toughness, no deformation after processing, dense material, no defects and easy polishing, easy coloring film, good oxygenation effect and so on.
Heat treatment strengthened, high impact toughness, insensitive to defects.
It has excellent thermoplasticity, can be extruded into a high-speed and complex structure, has a wide quenching temperature range and low quenching sensitivity.
Excellent welding performance and corrosion resistance, no tendency of stress corrosion cracking. Al-Mg-Si alloy is the only alloy that does not find stress corrosion cracking in heat-treated reinforced aluminum alloys.
After treatment, the surface of 6061 aluminum sheet is very smooth, easy to anodize and color. The disadvantage is that storage after quenching at room temperature for a period of time will negatively affect the strength (parking effect)
