aluminum alloy machining parts

The core difference between aluminum alloys 6061 and 6061-T6 lies in the heat treatment process and mechanical properties ‌ : 6061 is the base aluminum alloy model, while 6061-T6, after solution heat treatment and artificial aging (T6 state), has higher strength and hardness but slightly lower plasticity. ‌ ‌ ‌

 ‌

Differences in composition and process ‌

6061‌ : A basic aluminium alloy, mainly composed of magnesium (0.8%-1.2%) and silicon (0.4%-0.8%), which retains medium strength (tensile strength about 205 MPa) and good machinability through annealing. ‌ ‌


6061-T6‌ : After solution heat treatment (heating to about 530°C and rapid cooling) and artificial aging (holding at about 160°C for 18 hours) on 6061, Mg2Si strengthening phase was formed, the tensile strength increased to about 310 MPa, the yield strength reached 276 MPa, but the elongation decreased to 12%.

Performance comparison ‌

Feature                6061            6061-T6

Tensile strength: 205 MPa      310 MPa

Yield strength:    110 MPa      276 MPa

Elongation:         16%             12%

Hardness:            Medium      high


Application scenarios ‌

6061‌ : Applicable to decoration, construction, electronics and other fields where strength is not highly demanded, such as car frame, radiator, etc. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

6061-T6‌ : For high-intensity demand scenarios such as aviation components, precision instruments, ship structures, etc.

FAQ:



1Q: What certifications do your aluminum balls comply with?

1A: Our products meet ASTM B221 and ISO 9001 standards, with material traceability and optional third-party inspection reports.  


2Q: Can you machine non-standard features like internal threads or slots?

2A: Yes! We customize bores, threads, grooves, and complex geometries—share your CAD file for a feasibility review.  


3Q: Do you offer anodizing or other surface treatments?

3A: Absolutely. Hard anodizing (up to MIL-A-8625), PTFE coatings, or polishing can be added for wear/corrosion resistance.  


4Q: What is the tolerance range for high-precision applications?

4A: Standard tolerance is ±0.01mm; tighter tolerances (±0.005mm) are achievable for critical aerospace or medical uses.  


5Q: How do you ensure consistency in bulk orders?

5A: Every batch undergoes 100%  inspection, surface roughness testing, and hardness checks (Rockwell scale) for guaranteed uniformity.
