ANSWER:
The automotive industry often requires components to be lightweight, strong, and durable. The 6xxx aluminum series is considered the workhorse alloy class in automotive applications because its high value characteristics. This is one of the aluminum alloys that shows up most frequently in vehicle manufacturing because it of its higher strength levels, high impact and corrosion resistance. For these reasons, its primary use in automotive applications is load bearing framework.
ANSWER:
6082 T6 is the strongest aluminum in the 6000 series alloys. T6 is solution heat treated and artificially aged.
ANSWER:
6016 aluminum is a lower copper variant. It will show up in automotive applications that require formability and hemming capability above other characteristics, whereas 6082 is more likely to show up in load bearing framework due to its higher strength levels and impact resistance.
