　　6061 T6 <strong>aircraft grade aluminium sheet </strong>has a very good corrosion resistance and finishing ability, welding goes without any problems too. The strength level of 6061-T6 aluminum sheet is about that of mild steel. 6061-T6 aluminum sheet can be fabricated by most of the commonly used techniques. The biggest difference between aircraft aluminium sheet metal materials and ordinary aluminum sheets lies in mechanical properties. 6061 t6 is a high-quality aluminum alloy product produced by heat treatment and pre-stretching process. Although its strength can not be compared with 2XXX series or 7XXX series, its magnesium and silicon alloy characteristics are many, it has excellent processing performance, excellent welding characteristics and Electroplating, good corrosion resistance, high toughness and no deformation after processing, compact material without defects and easy to polish, easy to color film, excellent oxidation effect and other excellent characteristics.</p>

　　In comparison to the regular aircraft aluminum sheets of 7005 and 7075, 6061 t6 aircraft grade aluminium is cheaper and more corrosion resistant. The higher the hardness of the aluminum sheet, the more difficult it is to form, so the 7 series aviation aluminum sheet is very expensive. Yet ordinary 6 series aluminum alloys (6063, 6061, etc.) have medium hardness, easy extrusion and low production cost. The corrosion resistance of the 7 series aluminum alloy is very poor, so the surface must be treated with a special process, which increases the cost. The 6 series aluminum alloy itself has certain corrosion resistance. If the surface is anodized, the corrosion resistance can be greatly improved. These advantages make <strong>6061 t6 aluminum plate for tooling and cake molds </strong>a popular material in the aircraft industry.</p>
