5754 aluminum belongs to the Al-Mg (5000 series) wrought alloys, well known for its excellent corrosion resistance, moderate strength, and outstanding formability. As a non-heat-treatable alloy strengthened mainly through cold …
When it comes to aluminum extrusion design, 6063 alloy is one of the most popular choices, widely used in construction profiles, industrial frameworks, and automotive components. Yet question often arises during material selection: …
In modern metalworking, plastic forming processes are the foundation of shaping metal into usable components. These methods deform under external forces—without removing material—by utilizing metal’s plasticity. Among them, …
Among the many grades of aluminum alloys, 6061-T6 and 7075 stand out as two most widely used representative materials in modern engineering. Both share general advantages — lightweight, corrosion resistance, excellent formability, …
Stretching is mainly done for heat-treatable wrought alloys (2xxx and 7xxx series, sometimes 6xxx), because after solution heat treatment quenching, they develop residual stresses that can cause distortion or cracking during …
What is T temper about aluminum alloy ？The T-temper system applies only to heat-treatable alloys (mainly 2xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx series, plus some 4xxx 8xxx).2xxx series (Al-Cu) → 2024, 2219, 2618, 22146xxx (Al-Mg-Si) 6061, 6063, 6082, …
