Aluminum Material Grades We Work With

Aluminum 6061

The most versatile of the heat-treatable aluminum alloys, while keeping most of the good qualities of aluminum. This grade has a great range of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. It can be fabricated by most of the commonly used techniques and it has good workability in the annealed condition.

Aluminum 6082

Aluminum 6082 is a medium strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. It has the highest strength of the 6000 series alloys. 6082 is known as a structural alloy. In plate form, 6082 is the alloy most commonly used for machining. As a relatively new aluminum alloy, the high strength of aluminum 6082, such as high tensile strength, has allowed it to replace aluminum 6061 in many applications.

Aluminum 6063

Commonly known as an architectural alloy. It has reasonably high mechanical properties, excellent finishing characteristics and a high degree of resistance to corrosion. Most often found in various interior and exterior architectural applications and trim. Aluminum 6063 is used for aluminum extrusion applications.
