Kloeckner Metals sells 6061 aluminum tube, one of the most common and versatile aluminum alloys. Contact us today for a quote.
This is the most commonly used aluminum for general applications. The major alloying elements are silicon and magnesium which lead to good formability, weldability, corrosion resistance, and good surface finish. It is commonly used in structural applications.
It has good strength, formability, weldability, corrosion resistance, and good surface finish.
It is common in the automotive, aerospace, architectural, industrial, marine, and construction industries.
Door and window frames, sign frames, roofs, and automotive parts are all common applications for this grade.
It has good machinability.
It has good weldability.
It is heat treatable.

ANSWER:
It has a density of 2.7 g/cm3 (0.0975 lb/in3).
ANSWER:
6061 aluminum shows outstanding surface quality, making it great for auto bodies and wheels. You will also see it in braking systems, crossmembers, and propeller shafts.
ANSWER:
Tensile strength will depend on temper. The ultimate tensile strength of this grade at T6 will be 310 MPa with a yield strength of 270 MPa. For T6511, the ultimate tensile strength will be 290 MPa and the yield strength will be 270 MPa.
ANSWER:
Different processes applied to 6061 aluminum result in different mechanical properties. T6 and T6511 are both tempers and share the same alloy composition, but have different mechanical properties. For example, T6511 has slightly higher fatigue strength (100 vs. 96 MPa), while T6 has higher shear strength (210 vs 170 MPa).
