Aluminium Alloy 6082 T6 vs 6082 T651 ：

The T6 and T651 states of 6082 aluminum alloy differ in processing technology and performance. The T6 state undergoes artificial aging treatment after solid solution treatment, while the T651 state has an additional tensile stress relief process based on T6.

In terms of mechanical properties, 6082 aluminum alloy has high mechanical characteristics in T6 state, such as tensile strength σ b (MPa) ≥ 245, conditional yield strength σ 0.2 (MPa) ≥ 140, and elongation Δ 10 (%) ≥ 102. On the basis of T6, the T651 state further improves the stability and dimensional accuracy of the material by tensile stress relief.

In terms of processing performance, 6082 aluminum alloy has good formability and weldability in T6 state, but the strength of the welding zone will be reduced. The T651 state has a more stable processing performance due to the addition of a tensile stress relief process, making it suitable for applications with high precision requirements.

In terms of corrosion resistance, 6082 aluminum alloy exhibits good corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance in both T6 and T651 states, making it suitable for environments with high corrosion resistance requirements.

1.6082 Aluminum Alloy vs 6061 Aluminum Alloy

Aluminum alloys 6082 and 6061 are common engineering aluminum alloy materials, with some differences in composition, strength, and application.

Ingredients:

The main alloying elements of 6082 aluminum alloy are aluminum, silicon, magnesium, and zirconium. The addition of zirconium helps to improve the corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance of the alloy.

The main alloying elements of 6061 aluminum alloy are aluminum, magnesium, and silicon. This makes 6061 alloy have high strength and hardness.

strength:

6082 aluminum alloy has higher strength compared to 6061 alloy, especially with better strength retention performance under high temperature conditions. This makes 6082 alloy suitable for engineering structures and transportation manufacturing that require high strength and corrosion resistance.

6061 aluminum alloy also has high strength, but its strength retention performance at high temperatures is relatively poor.

Application:

6082 aluminum alloy is commonly used in engineering structures that require high strength and corrosion resistance, such as aerospace components, railway vehicles, and trucks.

6061 aluminum alloy is suitable for applications that require high strength and corrosion resistance, such as aircraft components, automotive parts, and ship components.

2.What is T6 in Aluminium alloy?

T6 in aluminum alloy is a heat-treated state, corresponding to Temperature 6 in English. This state of aluminum alloy has high strength and hardness, as well as good plasticity, toughness, and corrosion resistance. T6 treated aluminum alloys are commonly used to manufacture parts that require high strength, such as those in the automotive, aircraft, aerospace, and other fields.

T6 tunnel type heat treatment furnace

The T6 heat treatment process includes two main steps: solution treatment and artificial aging. Solution treatment is the process of heating aluminum alloy to a certain temperature (usually between 500-600 degrees Celsius), holding it for a certain period of time, and then rapidly cooling it. This process can cause some phases in aluminum alloys to change, forming more stable phases, thereby improving the strength and hardness of the alloy. Artificial aging is the process of holding the solution treated aluminum alloy at a certain temperature for a period of time to further enhance its properties.

The specific parameters of T6 heat treatment process, such as solution temperature, quenching rate, aging temperature, holding time, and aging stages, will vary depending on the composition of different alloys. For different alloys, even with the same heat treatment code T6, the values of these factors may vary. Therefore, the T6 heat treatment process needs to be adjusted according to the specific alloy composition to achieve the best mechanical properties

3.Is 6082 T6 bendable?

6082-T6 aluminum alloy can be bent. 6082-T6 aluminum alloy has good plasticity and is suitable for cold forming operations such as bending, stamping, and deep drawing, especially for making thin-walled structures or complex shapes.

6082 T6 aluminum profile
