6000 Series Aluminum Alloy Coil Overview

What is 6xxx series aluminum coil?

6000 series aluminum alloy coil represents 6061, which contains mainly magnesium and silicon elements, so it concentrates on the advantages of 4000 series and 5000 series.

6061 aluminum coil is a cold-treated aluminum forging product, suitable for applications requiring high corrosion resistance and oxidation. It has good serviceability, excellent interface characteristics, easy coating, and good workability. It can be used for low-pressure weapons and aircraft joints.If it contains a certain amount of manganese and chromium, it can neutralize the adverse effects of iron; sometimes a small amount of copper or zinc is added to increase the strength of the alloy without significantly reducing its corrosion resistance;

General Characteristics Of 6000 Aluminum Coil

excellent interface characteristics, easy to coat, high strength, good serviceability, high corrosion resistance.

The conductive material also contains a small amount of copper to offset the Adverse effects of titanium and iron on electrical conductivity; zirconium or titanium can refine grains and control the recrystallized structure. Lead and bismuth can be added to improve machinability. Mg2Si is solid-dissolved in aluminum, which makes the alloy have artificial age hardening function.
