6063 6061 aluminum steel plate

Description

The ***1 aluminum coil is a general purpose alloy thats made with silicon and magnesium. It has great resistance to corrosion, higher than other heat treated aluminums, but has lower strength. It has great machinability and forming properties. It can be easily welded and offers great joining characteristics. This aluminum alloy can be anodized and can have other coatings applied. The electrical conductivity of this metal is *0 percent of copper.

Its common for ***1 aluminum to be used for structural components, worm gears, electrical connectors, electrical fittings, marine fittings and hardware, marine components and for heavy duty structures that need good resistance to corrosion and strength-to-weight ratio. When in the annealed state, this metal can be cold worked using a variety of standard methods. For instance, it can be deep drawn, stamped, drilled, tapped, cut and bent.

Forging this alloy can be done using a temperature set between **0 and **0 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures to use for hot working should be between **0 and **0 degrees Fahrenheit. Any common welding technique can be used for this metal. If annealing is needed, it should be performed continuously at **5 degrees Fahrenheit for between two and three hours, then provide controlled cooling at *0 degrees Fahrenheit per hour, then down to **0 degrees Fahrenheit before air cooling. Aging precipitation heat treatment can also be performed on this grade of aluminum, which should be performed at a **0 degrees Fahrenheit for eight hours before air cooling. This will give it a T6 temper. Heat treatment is another method that can be used to form this alloy. It is recommended that **0 degrees Fahrenheit be used for a long enough time to allow the metal to thoroughly heat, then water quench.
