Aluminium 6062-T6
Aluminum 6062-T6 is a specific grade of aluminum alloy in the 6000 series, which means it is an aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy. The "T6" temper designation indicates that the material has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve a specific level of strength and hardness. Compared to other alloys in the 6000 series, 6062-T6 offers a balanced combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability, which makes it versatile for various industrial applications. It is comparable to 6061-T6 in many aspects but may have slight differences in composition and properties that make it more suitable for specific uses.
