		5052 Alloy Aluminum The following specifications cover Aluminum 5052 ASTM B209 ASTM B211 QQ-A-250/8 QQ-Q-225/7 ASME SB209 5052 is the alloy most suited to forming operations, with good workability and higher strength than that of the 1100 or 3003 alloys that are commercially available. 5052 is not heat-treatable, but is stronger than most of the 5xxx series of alloys. It has very good corrosion resistance, and can be easily welded. 5052 is not a good choice for extensive machining operations, as it has only a fair machinability rating. 5052-H32 Aluminum Minimum Properties: Ultimate Tensile Strength: 33,000 psi Yield Strength: 28,000 psi Brinell Hardness: 60 Chemistry: Aluminum (Al): 95.7–97.7 % Chromium (Cr): 0.15–0.35 % Copper (Cu): 0.1 % max.

		6061 Structural Marine Grade Alloy Aluminum The following specifications cover Aluminum 6061 6061 Aluminum is, by most any measure, the most commonly used aluminum alloy. It is specified in most any application due to its strength, heat treatability, comparatively easy machining, and weldability. If that were not enough, it is also capable of being anodized, adding a layer of protection for finished parts. The main alloy ingredients of 6061 aluminum are magnesium and silicon. 6061-T6 & 6061-T6511 Aluminum Physical and Mechanical Properties Ultimate Tensile Strength, psi : 45,000 Yield Strength, psi : 40,000 Brinell Hardness : 95 Rockwell Hardness : B60 •AMS 4117•ASTM B209•ASTM B210•ASTM B211•ASTM B221•ASTM B234•ASTM B241 (Pipe- Seamless)• ASTM B247 (Forging - Open Die)•ASTM B307•ASTM B313• ASTM B316• ASTM B345 (Pipe- Seamless)• ASTM B361• ASTM B404• ASTM B429• ASTM B483• ASTM B547• ASTM B548 (Plate)• ASTM B632 (Plate)•ASTM F467 (Nuts)• ASTM F468 (Nuts)• DIN 3.3211• MIL A-12545• MIL A-22771• MIL F-17132A (Tread Plate)• MIL F-18280• MIL F-39000• MIL F-3922• MIL G-18014• MIL G-18015• MIL P-25995• MIL T-7081• MIL W-23351• MIL W-85• QQ A-200/16• QQ A-200/8 (Extruded Shapes)• QQ A-225/8• QQ A-250/11• QQ A-367 (Forging - Open Die)• QQ A-430• QQ WW-T-700/6• SAE J454 Chemistry Data : Aluminum : Balance Chromium : 0.04 - 0.35 Copper : 0.15 - 0.4 Iron : 0 - 0.7 Magnesium : 0.8 - 1.2 Manganese : 0.15 max Other : 0.15 max Remainder Each : 0.05 max Silicon : 0.4 - 0.8 Titanium : 0.15 max Zinc : 0.25 max Principal Design Features Probably the most commonly available, heat treatable aluminum alloy. Applications Commonly used in the manufacture of heavy-duty structures requiring good corrosion resistance, truck and marine components, railroad cars, furniture, tank fittings, general structural and high pressure applications, wire products, and in pipelines. Machinability Machinability in the harder T 4 and T6 tempers is good. It is notably less easy to machine in the annealed temper. Forming Easily cold worked and formed in the annealed condition. Stamping, bending, spinning, deep drawing are all readily accomplished using standard methods. Welding The alloy has very good welding characteristics and may be welded by all of the common welding techniques. Gas tungsten arc welding is generally used for thin sections (less than 0.032") and gas metal arc welding is used for heavier sections. Use alloy 4043 filler wire for best results, although a decrease in T 6 properties will result. Heat Treatment Solution heat treat at 990 F for adequate time to allow for thorough heating and then water quench. Precipitation hardening is done at 320 F for 18 hours and air cool, followed by 350 F for 8 hours and air cooling. Forging The alloy is capable of being hot forged at temperatures in the range of 900 F to 750 F. Hot Working Hot working may be done in the temperature range of 700 F to 500 F. Cold Working Cold working in the O temper condition is readily performed. The alloy is notably less easy to cold form in the T 4 and T 6 tempers. Annealing Annealing should be done at 775 F for 2 to 3 hours followed by controlled cooling at 50 f per hour down to 500 F, then air cool. Aging The aging precipitation heat treatment is done at 350 F for 8 hours followed by air cooling. This produces the T6 temper. Tempering Not applicable. Hardening See "Aging".

		6063 Alloy Aluminum The following specifications cover Aluminum 6063 6063 is often called architectural aluminum for two reasons - first, it has a surface finish that is far smoother than the other commercially available alloys, and second, its strength is significantly less (roughly half the strength of 6061), making it suited for applications where strength is not the foremost consideration. 6063 is rated as "Good" for forming and cold working operations, "Excellent" for anodizing, and "Fair" for machining. 6063-T5 & 6063-T52 Aluminum Minimum Properties Ultimate Tensile Strength, psi : 27,000 Yield Strength, psi : 21,000 Brinell Hardness : 60 Chemistry Aluminum (Al) : 97.5% max Chromium (Cr) : 0.1% max Copper (Cu) : 0.1% max Iron (Fe) : 0.35% max Magnesium (Mg) : 0.45 - 0.90% Manganese (Mn) : 0.1% max Silicon (Si) : 0.2 - 0.6% Specifications ASTM B210 ASTM B221 ASTM B241 (Pipe- Seamless) ASTM B345 (Pipe) ASTM B429 MIL P-25995 QQ A-200/9 Chemistry Data Aluminum : Balance Chromium : 0.1 max Copper : 0.1 max Iron : 0.35 max Magnesium : 0.45 - 0.9 Manganese : 0.1 max Remainder Each : 0.05 max Remainder Total : 0.15 max Silicon : 0.2 - 0.6 Titanium : 0.1 max Zinc : 0.1 max Principal Design Features This is generally considered to be an extrusion alloy that is heat treatable for strengthening. Applications Commonly used in the manufacture of furniture, windows, stair rails, and in pipe railing. Commonly used in architectural extrusions. Machinability Machinability is considered to be average for this alloy. Forming Forming ability, either hot or cold, is good. Welding The alloy is readily welded by all of the conventional methods. Filler rod should be of the same alloy or AL 4043 alloy. Heat Treatment Solution heat treat at 970 F for 1 hour followed by water quench. This produces T 4 temper. Other tempers are accomplished by aging. Forging Hot forging may be done in the range of 500 F to 950 F. Hot Working Hot working, as with forging, may be done at temperatures above 500 F up to maximum of 950 F. Cold Working Cold working characteristics are good for all conventional forming methods. Annealing Anneal at 775 F for 3 hours and use controlled cooling at rate of 50 F per hour down to 500 F. Then air cool. Aging Aging is done at a temperature of 350 F for 8 hours for T 6 and T 62 tempers. Age at 360 F for 3 hours to get T5 temper. Tempering Not applicable. Hardening Hardens due to aging heat treatment and cold working. See "Aging". Other Physical Props Electrical conductivity 50% of copper.
