high strength thick 6061 aluminum plate aluminum thick plate for machine manufacturing
• A balance of strength and flexibility
• Magnesium and silicon give 6061 aluminium its properties of strong corrosion resistance, high strength, and general workability.
This winning combination makes 6061 aluminum one of the most popular aluminum alloys on the market.
• 6061 aluminum is more flexible than other 6000 series aluminium, making it highly suitable for applications requiring welding,
machining, and/or forming.
Key properties and benefits
6061 aluminum alloy is a high-quality aluminum alloy product produced by heat treatment pre-stretching process. It has many

Frequently Asked Questions
1)What are the characteristics of 5052 aluminum vs. 6061 aluminum?
5052 and 6061 are likely the two most widely used aluminum grades. Both are lightweight, offering strong corrosion
resistance and high tensile strength, but which is “best” depends on the requirements of the application. 5052 is easier
to bend and form without cracking, while 6061 can be extruded into various shapes and strengthen with heat treatment.
