1:Brief Introduction Of 6082 Aluminium/Aluminum Round BarAluminium alloy 6082 is a medium strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. It has the highest strength of the
6000 series alloys. Alloy 6082 is known as a structural alloy. In plate form, Aluminium alloy 6082 is the alloy most commonly
used for machining.
As a relatively new alloy, the higher strength of Aluminium alloy 6082 has seen it replace 6061 in many applications. The
addition of a large amount of manganese controls the grain structure which in turn results in a stronger alloy.
In the T6 and T651 temper, Aluminium alloy 6082 machines well and produces tight coils of swarf when chip breakers
are used. Aluminium alloy 6082 has very good weldability but strength is lowered in the weld zone. When weldeCompressor d to itself,
alloy 4043 wire is recommended. If welding Aluminium alloy 6082 to 7005, then the wire used should be alloy 5356.
The most common tempers for Aluminium alloy 6082 are:
O- annealed wrought alloy
T4- Solution heat treated and naturally aged
T6- Solution heat treated and artificially aged
T651- Solution heat treated, stress relieved by stretching and then artificially aged
Aluminium alloy 6082 is used in:
HiLaboratory Instruments gh stress applications
Trusses
Bridges
Cranes
Transport applications
Ore skips
Beer barrels
Milk churns
2:Chemical CompositionThe aluminum industry has created asystem using afour-digit numerical designation to identify wrought aluminum
alloys.The first digit indicates the major alloying element.The second digit indicates whether there was amodification in
the basic alloy.The third and fourth digit indicates the specific alloy.The following represent the various groups:1XXXAluminum 99% or greater2XXXCopper -major alloying element3XXXManganese -major alloying element5XXXMagnesium -major alloying element6XXXMagnesium and silicon -major alloying elements7XXXZinc -major alloying element
