 What is 6061 T6 Aluminum?

What is 6061 T6 Aluminum?

CNC machined 6061 T6 aluminum is a solid block of heat-treated metal that’s easy to machine, weld, and work with. Its strength and durability come from a mix of aluminum, magnesium, silicon, chromium, copper, zinc, and other elements. A special aging process increases 6061’s hardness, making it a popular choice for critical applications.
