Introduction to commonly used 6-series aluminum alloys
6005 extruded profiles and pipes are used for structural components that require a strength and height greater than 6063 alloy, such as ladders, TV antennas, etc
6009 Automotive Body Panel
6010 Thin Plate: Automotive Body
6061 requires various industrial structures with certain strength, weldability, and high corrosion resistance, such as pipes, rods, shapes, and plates used in the manufacturing of trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, furniture, mechanical parts, precision machining, etc
6063 industrial profiles, building profiles, irrigation pipes, and extruded materials for vehicles, benches, furniture, fences, etc
6066 forged and welded structural extruded materials
6070 Heavy duty Welding Structure and Extrusion Materials and Pipes for Automotive Industry
6101 High strength bars, electrical conductors, and heat dissipation equipment for public buses
6151 is used for forging crankshaft parts, machine parts, and producing rolling rings, which require both good malleability, high strength, and good corrosion resistance
6201 High strength conductive rods and wires
6205 thick plate, pedal and high impact resistant extruded parts
6262 requires threaded high stress parts with corrosion resistance better than alloys from 2011 and 2017. 6351 is used for extruded structural components of vehicles and pipelines for water, oil, and other transportation
6463 Architectural and various appliance profiles, as well as automotive decorative parts with bright surfaces after anodizing treatment
6A02 aircraft engine parts, complex shaped forgings and die forgings
