6-Series Aluminum Alloys & Selection Guide
Common 6-series aluminum sheets include 6061, 6063, 6082, 6101, 6060.
6061 is the most widely used, with high strength, good weldability, and corrosion resistance, suitable for structural parts, profiles, machinery, and automotive components.
6063 features excellent extrudability and surface finish, mainly used for architectural profiles, doors, windows, and decorative parts.
6082 has higher strength than 6061, applied to heavy-duty structural parts.
6101 & 6060 are for high-surface-quality profiles.
💡
Choose by demand: Select 6061 for general structural strength; 6063 for extrusion and appearance; 6082 for heavy load; and others for special surface or conductivity requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q
What is 5052 aluminium sheet mainly used for?
5052 aluminium sheet is widely used across marine, architectural, industrial, and transportation sectors. Typical applications include boat hulls, deck plates, chemical storage tanks, curtain walls, truck body panels, cookware, beverage cans, and electronic device casings, thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance and formability.
Q
What temper options are available for 5052 aluminium?
5052 aluminium is available in several temper conditions including O (fully annealed), H32, H34, and H112, among others. The choice of temper depends on the required strength, ductility, and forming characteristics for your specific application.
Q
What thickness and width range does 5052 aluminium sheet come in?
5052 aluminium sheet is available in thicknesses ranging from 0.3 mm to 600 mm, and widths from 50 mm to 1200 mm. Both DC (Direct Chill) and CC (Continuous Cast) types are offered to meet diverse manufacturing requirements.
Q
What is the difference between 5052 and 6061 aluminium?
5052 aluminium belongs to the 5xxx series (Al-Mg alloy), offering superior corrosion resistance—especially in marine and chemical environments—along with excellent formability. 6061 belongs to the 6xxx series (Al-Mg-Si alloy) and provides higher strength, better machinability, and is more suitable for structural and load-bearing applications.
Q
How do I choose between 6061, 6063, and 6082 aluminium alloys?
Choose 6061 for general structural strength, good weldability, and versatility. Select 6063 when excellent surface finish and extrudability are priorities, such as for architectural profiles, doors, and windows. Opt for 6082 when higher strength is needed for heavy-duty structural components.
Q
Is 5052 aluminium suitable for marine environments?
Yes. 5052 aluminium is one of the most popular choices for marine applications due to its outstanding resistance to saltwater corrosion. It is commonly used for boat hulls, deck plates, and marine hardware where long-term durability in harsh, moisture-rich environments is essential.
