Marine Grade 6000 Aluminum with Classification Society Australia

6000 series aluminum is a widely used aluminum alloy material. Its main alloy elements include magnesium, silicon, manganese, chromium, etc. The combination of these elements gives 6 series aluminum good mechanical and processability properties, making it ideal for many industrial applications.

There are many alloy grades of 6 series aluminum profiles, the commonly used ones are 6463, 6262, 6201, 6082, 6063, 6061, 6010, 6009, 6005, etc.

Main elements

Mg: Magnesium is one of the key alloy elements in 6 series aluminum. It can significantly increase the strength and hardness of the alloy. Magnesium content usually ranges from 0.8% to 1.5%.

Si: The content of silicon in 6 series aluminum is usually between 0.3% and 0.8%. It can improve the strength and wear resistance of the alloy, while also increasing the tensile strength and fatigue resistance of the aluminum alloy.

Mn: The content of manganese is usually between 0.8% and 1.5%. It can significantly improve the strength and hardness of the alloy, while also improving the corrosion resistance and heat resistance of the alloy.

Cr: The content of chromium is usually between 0.04% and 0.35%. It can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of the alloy, especially in seawater and other corrosive media.

Other elements that may be added

In addition to the above main alloy elements, some other trace elements may be added to 6 series aluminum, such as copper, zinc, etc. The addition of these elements can further improve the properties of aluminum alloys, such as improving its corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance and welding performance.

6082 aluminum sheet profile

6082 aluminum is a heat-treatable alloy with good formability, weldability, machinability and corrosion resistance. It also has medium strength and can maintain good operability after annealing. It is mainly used in mechanical structures, including aluminum bars, 6082 aluminum plates, pipes and profiles. Aluminum 6082 properties will be significantly improved after heat treatment.

6082 and 6061 also belong to the family of aluminum-magnesium-silicon heat-treatable strengthening. Their extrusion processing and forging performance are quite excellent, and their anodizing and corrosion resistance are also first-class. After extrusion quenching and artificial aging, the HBS value of 6082 can reach more than 80, while that of 6061 can exceed 95.

Haomei 6082 and 6061 marine aluminum profiles have been certificated by classification societies like LR, DNV, ABS,etc. They have been exported to Australia, USA, Turkey,etc. Welcome to leave message below to inquire what you need.
