This article discusses differences between 7075 and 6061
aluminum sheet pieces in composition, hardness, price and application.</p>
<p>
<strong> Composition</strong></p>
<p>
The <strong>7075
aluminum sheet</strong> mainly uses zinc as the main alloy, with a composition ratio of 6%.</p>
<p>
The 6061
aluminum sheet mainly uses magnesium and silicon as the main alloys, and the total composition ratio is low.<br><br>
</p>
<p>
<strong> Hardness</strong></p>
<p>
On the strength of 7075, it is stronger than steel, but only slightly stronger. Yield strength (the strength of the permanent bending deformation of aluminum) is only a little stronger than 6061.</p>
<p>
<strong> Price</strong></p>
<p>
7075 is the lightest and strongest aluminum, and 7075
aluminium sheet price is super expensive!</p>
<p>
6061 is the most common aluminum, light, strong, and economical, its price is not so high.</p>
<p>
<strong> Application</strong></p>
<p>
7005 has a high proportion of other metals, so it is difficult to weld and handle. In particular, 7075 (the latter two figures represent the proportion of alloys) has a higher proportion, so it is generally not used as a material for the frame.</p>
<p>
Because <strong>6061
aluminum sheet</strong> has a low proportion of other metals, it can increase its strength and reduce its wind resistance by special-shaped and various treatments. It can even reduce the weight by 3 pipe-drawing. On the whole, 6061 is a better material.</p>
