Mechanical properties and application range of different aluminum plates
What is Aluminum Alloy Plate/Sheet?
Aluminum Alloy Plate, also known as aluminum sheet, is the result of pressing the basic shape of aluminum under high pressure and carrying it into a plate shape.
Different series of aluminum alloy plates have different mechanical properties and application ranges. Next, I will introduce the mechanical properties and application range of aluminum alloy plates from several representative aluminum alloy grades.
7075 Series Aluminum Sheet
Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: 540MPA
Yield Strength: 460MPA
7075 Series Aluminum Sheet is a cold-treated forging alloy with high strength, far better than mild steel. 7075 is one of the strongest alloys commercially available. General corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties and anodic reaction. Among them, the 7075-T651 aluminum alloy is especially top grade. Widely used in the aerospace industry, blow molding (bottle) molds, ultrasonic plastic welding molds, golf heads, templates, fixtures, mechanical equipment, high-end aluminum alloy bicycle frames, etc.
6063 Series Aluminum Sheet
Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: 230MPA
Yield Strength: 180MPA
6063 aluminum alloy is a heat treatable strengthening alloy with medium strength in the AL-MG-SI series. MG and SI are the main alloying elements. The main work of optimizing the chemical composition is to determine the percentage of MG and SI. Widely used in architectural aluminum doors and windows, curtain wall frames, architectural profiles, irrigation pipes, and supplies for vehicles, benches, homes, fences, etc. It is a common aluminum alloy.
6061 Series Aluminum Sheet
Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: 290MPA
Yield Strength: 240MPA
The main alloying elements in 6061 aluminum alloy plate are magnesium and silicon, which has medium strength, good plasticity and excellent corrosion resistance, weldability and good oxidation effect. It is widely used in various industrial structural parts that require certain strength and high antibacterial corrosion resistance. It is a promising alloy with a wide range of applications. It can be anodized and colored, and can also be painted, suitable for building decoration materials.
5083 Series Aluminum Sheet
Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: 270MPA
Yield Strength: 115MPA
5083 Series Aluminum Sheet is the most widely used antirust aluminum. This alloy has high strength, especially fatigue resistance: high plasticity and corrosion resistance, and cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. When hardened, it has low plasticity, good corrosion resistance, good weldability, and can be polished. 5083 aluminum plates are commonly used in ships, ships, vehicle materials, automobile and aircraft plate weldments, pressure vessels that require strict fire protection, refrigeration devices, TV towers, drilling equipment, transportation equipment, missile components, armor, etc.
5052 Series Aluminum Sheet
Mechanical Properties
Tensile Strength: 165MPA
Yield Strength: 65MPA
5052 Series Aluminum Sheet is widely used, especially the construction industry is inseparable from this alloy. It is the most promising alloy and the most widely used anti-rust aluminum. This alloy has high strength, especially fatigue resistance, poor machinability and polishability. It has good formability, corrosion resistance, weldability and medium strength. Used in the manufacture of aircraft fuel tanks, oil pipes, and sheet metal parts for transportation vehicles and ships, instruments, street lamp brackets and rivets, hardware products, electrical casings, etc.
