DESCRIPTION

.375″ Aluminum Plate 6061-T651

All Material Will Be Shear Cut

 It is one of the most common alloys for general-purpose use, with its primary alloying elements being magnesium and silicon. It is widely used in industries like aerospace, automotive, construction, and marine applications. 
Key characteristics and properties
  • Composition: It is primarily made of aluminum, with major alloying elements of magnesium and silicon. Other elements like copper, chromium, and zinc are also included in smaller amounts.
  • Strength: It has a good strength-to-weight ratio and, after heat treatment (especially in the T6 temper), can be as strong as low-carbon steel.
  • Corrosion Resistance: The alloy has high corrosion resistance, and its resistance can be further enhanced with a surface treatment like anodizing.
  • Fabrication: It is easily fabricated by most common methods, including welding and machining.
  • Heat Treatable: 6061 is a precipitation-hardened alloy, meaning its strength can be increased through heat treatment. 
Common applications
  • Structural applications: Used in structural framing, bridges, and towers.
  • Transportation: Found in truck frames, automotive parts, and aircraft fittings.
  • Marine: Suitable for marine applications due to its corrosion resistance and strength.
  • Other: Also used for electronic components, hydraulic cylinders, sporting goods, and various general fabrication projects. 

* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations.
* All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. This does NOT apply to Cut To Size items. Those will be +.125″, -0.00″ tolerances.
