ask aluminium Forum

At present, under the manufacturing process and technical level, light body weight is an important method to solve the heavy vehicle overload problem and energy saving, the use of Aluminum Alloy material as carriage plate reduce the weight of products and improved in the premise life at the same time. And 6061 aluminum coil are used for carriage plate, why does it can used as the material, is it has features which other product do not have? Let us find the answer!


Haomei 6061 aluminum coil, can be heat treatment and strengthened, has moderate intensity, has good extrusion forging performance, good comprehensive performance, easy processing, is the high quality material for car carriage plate. Haomei 6061 aluminum coil has temper of O, T4, T6, T651 and others, the tensile strength, the yield strength and shear strength are good, has good welding performance, can welding, electric arc welding, spot welding and line welding, and has excellent solder-ability. The corrosion resistance is strong and there is no tendency of stress corrosion cracking. In the manufacturing process, Cu is added to improve the plasticity of the alloy during hot processing and increase the strengthening effect of heat treatment.

While 6061 Aluminum can be used for a vehicle registration plate, the actual plate provided by the government will be whatever they specify it to be. If the government provided plate is polyester plastic, then it must be polyester plastic. You generally are not allowed to create your own plate.

There are some governments that will allow you to create your own plate, as long as it is the specified size, and the number is the correct number, and the colors on the plate are such that the numbers are easily visible. In those cases, you may create the plate in almost any material you want.
