what is 6000 series aluminum sheet?
6 series aluminum alloy mainly contains two elements of magnesium and silicon, also known as “aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy”, is a heat treatment type of corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, with high strength and corrosion resistance, good uniformity, excellent processing performance, excellent welding characteristics and plating, good corrosion resistance, high toughness and no deformation after processing, dense material without defects It has excellent characteristics such as easy polishing, easy color film, and excellent oxidation effect. It is the more circulated prodsuct in the market at present.
6xxx series aluminum alloy concentrates the advantages of 4000 series and 5000 series, and is suitable for applications with high requirements of corrosion resistance and oxidation, and is mainly used for extrusion profiles in engineering applications.

Advantages of 6 series aluminium sheet
| Alloy system | Alloy No. | Summary of Material Properties | |
| JIS | A.A. | ||
| 6000 series | 6061 | 6061 | Heat treatment type corrosion resistant alloy. Treated with T6 can have a very high endurance value, but the strength of the welded interface is low, so it is used for screws and anchors |
| 6N01 | Medium-strength alloy for extrusion. The strength is between 6061 and 6063. It has good extrudability, stamping hardenability, and can be used as large thin-meat shapes with complex shapes. It has good corrosion resistance and weldability. | ||
| 6063 | 6063 | A representative alloy for extrusion, its strength is lower than 6061, its extrudability is good, it can be used as a shape with complex cross-sectional shape, and its corrosion resistance and surface treatment are excellent | |
| 6101 | 6101 | High-strength conductive material. 55% IACS guarantee | |
| 6151 | 6151 | Forging processability is particularly good, corrosion resistance and surface treatment are also good, suitable for complex forging prodsucts. | |
| 6262 | Corrosion-resistant free-cutting alloy, with better corrosion resistance and surface treatment than 2011, and its strength is the same as 6061. | ||
Different models of aluminum alloys are used for different purposes.
Take the commonly used 6-series grade 6061 aluminum alloy as an example.
General characteristics of 6061: excellent interface characteristics, easy coating, high strength, good serviceability, and high corrosion resistance.
6061 is a cold treated aluminum forging prodsuct suitable for applications requiring high resistance to corrosion and oxidation. It has good serviceability, excellent interface characteristics, easy coating, and good workability. It can be used for low-pressure weapons and aircraft joints.
6061 aluminum alloy
Typical uses of 6061 aluminum sheet: Aircraft parts, camera parts, couplers, marine fittings and hardware, electronic fittings and joints, decorative or various hardware, hinge heads, magnetic heads, brake pistons, hydraulic pistons, electrical fittings, valves, and valve parts.

Aluminum sheet sheet standard export packing
- The aluminum sheet is paperclip or laminated to ensure that the surface of the aluminum sheet is intact and free of scratches;
- Plastic film ( HDPE, PVC, PE or PET etc ) protection or hard kraft paper wrapping is used to prevent moisture and rain to ensure that the aluminum sheet is clean and free of dirt during transportation (each package has a moisture-proof desiccant to ensure the quality of our prodsucts in East China and South China, where there is more rain);
- Installed with wooden brackets and reinforced with steel straps to avoid collision during transportation and to ensure the geometry of the aluminum sheet remains unchanged;
- For export prodsucts, we use wooden boxes and pallets with fumigation mark for packaging;
- We can also pack according to other packaging requirements of customers;
