Aluminium 6013 Bar, Sheet, Plate

Aluminium / aluminum 6013 is a silverish white metal that is known for its versatility. Aluminium / aluminum can be combined with one of these elements – silicon, magnesium, manganese, copper, and zinc, to form aluminium / aluminum alloys.

Aluminium / aluminum 6013 alloy is a wrought alloy type with high strength, improved formability, excellent compressive properties, and good corrosion resistance.

Advantages

  • Greater corrosion resistance
  • Higher tensile strength
  • Brilliant polish
  • Excellent machine strength
  • High creep resistance
  • High temperature strenght
  • Excellent mechanical properties
