6000 Series Aluminum Alloys
6000 Series Aluminum Sheets, Plates and Coil
6000 series aluminum alloy has magnesium and silicone as the major alloying elements, and Mg2Si is the main strengthening phase. This series alloy can be strengthened by heat treatment. The remarkable properties are moderate strength, good corrosion resistance, excellent welding property and stress-corrosion cracking resistance, good formability and machinability. The alloys containing Cu have similar strength with 2000 series alloys, but worse corrosion resistance. 6061 and 6063 are the most widely used alloys of 6000 series, which have the best comprehensive performance and economy.
- Thickness: 0.2-200mm
- Width: 30-2500mm
- Length:500-13000mm
- Thickness: 0.2-6.35mm
- Width: 500-2500mm
6000 series aluminum alloy is used in automotive industry (e.g., window and door parts), architectural applications, hardware, furniture parts, rings, fuses, electrical conductors, screw machine parts, etc.
To pack the aluminum sheet/plate/coil, first of all, put a layer of plastic film with a thickness of no less than 0.08mm in the packing box, then a layer of EPE foam, the third layer of PE kraft paper, and finally put the desiccant.
