6101 Aluminum Tube Tempers
Alloy 6101 is available in various temper conditions and, consequently, does not need additional heat treatment. The wide variety of tempers provides different strengths, formability, and electrical conductivity levels, allowing for greater design flexibility. The most common tempers for 6101 alloy are:
F: As fabricated. No special control has been performed to the heat treatment or strain hardening after the shaping process (e.g., casting, hot working, or cold working).
T6: Solution heat treated and artificially aged.
T61: An over-aged temper with higher conductivity but lower mechanical properties than -T6.
T63: An “in-between” temper with higher conductivity than T6, but less than T61.
T64: Partially annealed temper; the highest conductivity and best temper for maximum formability.
T65: Has medium strength and conductivity, as well as a controlled range of tensile and yield strengths to help control bending reproducibility.
6106 Aluminum Tube Applications:
Aluminum 6106 alloy is chiefly used in the following:
1) Structural applications
2) Marine applications
3) Ladders, pylons and towers
4) Automotive structures
5) Railway rolling stock
