6061 aluminum alloy near me is a widely used aluminum plate material, favored by industries and manufacturers for its medium strength, excellent corrosion resistance, good weldability, and superior oxidation resistance.
T6 refers to the temper state, which is the most common heat treatment process for 6061 aluminum alloy. The production process includes quenching thick plates, cutting, stretching, aging treatment, sawing, polishing, and packaging. After solution heat treatment, cold working is usually unnecessary, with only straightening and leveling required.
Taking Mingtai Aluminum as an example, the company produces 6061 aluminum plates with thicknesses above 0.3mm and widths up to 2600mm, making it one of the few aluminum plate manufacturers in China with such capabilities. Custom orders are available to meet unique requirements.
The properties of aluminum alloys largely depend on their chemical composition. 6061 consists of:
Fe 0.7 | Cu 0.15-0.40 | Si 0.40-0.8 | Mg 0.8-1.2 | Mn 0.15 | Cr 0.04-0.35 | Ti 0.15 | Zn 0.25 | Al Balance
6061 T6 aluminum plates are Mg-Si alloys with medium strength, good plasticity, and corrosion resistance, and no stress corrosion cracking tendency. They excel in weldability and cold workability, making them ideal for construction and transportation. Due to trace copper content, their strength and quenching sensitivity surpass 6063, but require solution treatment and aging for optimal performance.
Given the high demand for 6061 aluminum plates, many manufacturers offer production capabilities. For buyers unfamiliar with the market, Henan Mingtai Aluminum is a reliable choice. With over 20 years of experience, five production bases, and advanced six-roller cold mills, the company adheres to strict material sourcing and 6σ management, providing high-quality mill-finish 6061 T6 plates without additional milling, available for global delivery.
