The differences of 7075 aluminum sheet, 6063 aluminum sheet and 6061 aluminum sheet - aluhm - 01-17-2018

According to the different aluminum alloy elements, aluminum sheet can be divided into different grades of alloy. Different aluminum alloy sheet has different application. Today, we explain the differences of 7075 aluminum sheet, 6063 aluminum sheet and 6061 aluminum sheet.

1. Alloy composition is different.
6061 aluminum sheets and 6063 aluminum sheets are the 6000 series aluminum sheet. 6000 series aluminum sheet is aluminum-magnesium- silicon alloy. The elements of 7075 aluminum alloy sheet are aluminum and zinc. The difference between 6061 aluminum sheet and 6063 aluminum sheet is more subtle. The silicon contents of 6061 range from 0.4 to 0.8, and the magnesium content ranges from 0.8 to 1.2. 6063 silicon contents in 0.2-0.6, magnesium content of 0.45-0.9. Because of the difference in silicon and magnesium, it is generally said that 6061 is better than the hardness of 6063. 6061 and 6063 also have great differences in tensile strength. In the case of annealing and quenching, the tensile strength of the 6061 is less than or equal to 150-290, and the 6063 is less than or equal to 135-240.
1.   The application of products are different
6061 aluminum sheet requires a certain strength, weldability and corrosion resistance of high industrial structure, such as the manufacture of the truck, tower building, ship, car, furniture, machinery parts, precision machining for tube, rod and sheet shaped material.
6063 aluminum sheets are used for building profiles, and irrigation pipe for vehicle, bench, furniture, fences etc.
7075 aluminum sheets are used in the manufacture of aircraft structures and other requirements of high strength, high corrosion resistance of high stress structural parts and mold manufacturi

7075 aluminum alloy plate has been the standard workhorse 7XXX series alloy within the aerospace industry. Zinc is the primary alloying element in 7075 and was the first successful Al-Zn-Mg-Cu high strength alloy using the beneficial effects of the alloying addition of chromium to develop good stress-corrosion cracking resistance in sheet products. Although other 7XXX alloys have since been developed, 7075 aluminum alloy plate remains the baseline with a good balance of properties required for aerospace applications and excellent machinability.
6063 aluminum alloy plate are widely used in building aluminum doors and windows and curtain wall framework, in order to ensure that the doors and windows, curtain walls with high wind resistance performance, assembly performance, corrosion resistance and decorative properties, requirements for the comprehensive performance of aluminum alloy profile is much higher than the industry standard sections.
6061 aluminum sheet is one of the advantages of aluminum products, aluminum research and development of the "1+1" hot rolling production line, is specifically for the Aluminum sheet, the 2 series, the 7 series, the series of aluminum and other high-end products in the production line of research and development in. 6061 aluminum sheet processing technology of Haomei aluminum production far more than counterparts, the thinnest can produce 0.6mm, the aluminum oxide has a good effect after processing, small deformation, uniform quenching and other advantages, in the mobile phone shell, automobile hub, rod boxes, 3C products and other fields, enjoys a good reputation and reputation. At the same time, the 6061 aluminum sheet of Haomei aluminum industry, with its excellent quenching performance, superior corrosion resistance and other advantages, has been widely used in the field of automobile, aerospace, shipbuilding and other fields.
