Aluminum 6061 - T6, T651
Pen Manufacturing can custom fabricate, machine, and weld various types and grades of aluminum including aluminum 6061, 6061-T6, & 6061-T651.
6061 aluminum is one of the most versatile of all the aluminum alloys because of its clean surface finish and good mechanical properties including strength, formability, weldability, machinability, and corrosion resistance. Since 1982, Pen has manufactured prototypes based on client's drawings, CAD files, and 3D STEP files.
Aluminum 6061 Characteristics
| Temper | Yield Strength | Ultimate Tensile Strength | Modules of Elasticity | Brinell Hardness (500kg / 10mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Untempered | 11 | 19 | 10,000 | 30 |
| Aluminum T6, T651, T6511 | 40 | 19 | 10,000 | 95 |
Aluminum 6061-T651
