Aluminium 6020 Bar, Sheet, Plate

Aluminium / aluminum is a silverish white metal. It is the third most abundantly available element. Aluminium / aluminum can be combined with one of these elements – silicon, magnesium, manganese, copper, and zinc, to form aluminium / aluminum alloys.

It is possible to use aluminium / aluminum alloys to create stiffer and lighter designs than traditional uses of steels. Aluminium / aluminum 6020 alloy is a wrought alloy type with excellent corrosion resistance. It is an unleaded variety. Aluminium / aluminum 6020 alloy is known for its high corrosion resistance, excellent machinability, good joining characteristics, and very good response to anodizing.

Advantages

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