6061 aluminum is a heat-strengthened alloy with good formability, weldability, machinability, and medium strength. It can still maintain good operability after annealing. The main alloying elements of 6061 aluminum are Magnesium and silicon form the Mg2Si phase. If it contains a certain amount of manganese and chromium, it can neutralize the bad effects of iron; sometimes a small amount of copper or zinc is added to increase the strength of the alloy without significantly reducing its corrosion resistance; there is a small amount of conductive materials In order to offset the adverse effects of titanium and iron on electrical conductivity; zirconium or titanium can refine the grain and control the recrystallized structure; in order to improve the machinability, lead and bismuth can be added. Mg2Si is solid-dissolved in aluminum, which makes the alloy have artificial age hardening function.
6061-T651 is the main alloy of 6061 aluminum alloy. Although its strength is not comparable to that of 2XXX series or 7XXX series, its magnesium and silicon alloys have many characteristics. It has excellent processing properties, excellent welding characteristics and electroplating properties, and good resistance. Corrosion, high toughness, no deformation after processing, compact material without defects and easy polishing, easy color film, excellent oxidation effect and other excellent characteristics.

One, 6061 aluminum alloy elements
The main alloying elements of 6061 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, and the Mg2Si phase is formed. If it contains a certain amount of manganese and chromium, it can neutralize the bad effects of iron; sometimes a small amount of copper or zinc is added to increase the strength of the alloy without significantly reducing its corrosion resistance; there is a small amount of conductive materials In order to offset the adverse effects of titanium and iron on electrical conductivity; zirconium or titanium can refine the grain and control the recrystallized structure; in order to improve the machinability, lead and bismuth can be added. Mg2Si is solid-dissolved in aluminum, which makes the alloy have artificial age hardening function. The main alloying elements in 6061 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, which have medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability and good oxidation effect.
