Performance Comparison and Application Fields of 6061 and 7075 Aluminum Plates
Both 6061 and 7075 aluminum plates hold important positions in the field of aluminum alloy materials. They each have unique properties and thus play significant roles in different industries and application scenarios. So, what are the differences in performance between these two types of aluminum plates, and which fields are they respectively suitable for? Let’s take an in – depth look.
The 6061 aluminum plate is a widely used aluminum alloy material with excellent comprehensive properties. It has medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability, and workability. In the automotive industry, it is often used to manufacture automotive parts such as door frames and engine hoods. In the field of electronic products, the casing of laptops also often uses 6061 aluminum plates. Its good workability can meet the requirements of precise exterior design.
Main Properties of 6061 Aluminum Plate
●Strength: After T6 heat treatment, the tensile strength can reach about 290MPa, and the yield strength is approximately 240MPa, which can meet the strength requirements of general structural components.
●Corrosion Resistance: Containing alloy elements such as magnesium and silicon, it has good corrosion resistance and is not easy to rust in common environments.
●Workability: It is easy to be processed by various methods such as cutting, bending, and welding, and can be made into various – shaped parts.
The 7075 aluminum plate is famous for its ultra – high strength and is a commonly used material in high – end fields such as aerospace. Its strength is much higher than that of 6061 aluminum plates. At the same time, it has good fatigue strength and stress – corrosion cracking resistance. In the aerospace industry, 7075 aluminum plates are used to manufacture important components of aircraft such as wings and landing gear. In the field of high – end sports goods, such as high – end bicycles and golf clubs, it is also applied. Its high strength can enhance the performance and durability of products.
Main Properties of 7075 Aluminum Plate
●Strength: In the T6 state, the tensile strength can be as high as over 520MPa, and the yield strength is about 480MPa. It is an aluminum alloy with very high strength.
●Fatigue Strength: When subjected to repeated stress, it has good fatigue strength and is not easy to suffer from fatigue fracture.
Stress – Corrosion Cracking Resistance: Compared with other aluminum alloys, the 7075 aluminum plate has better stress – corrosion cracking resistance and can maintain good performance in complex stress and corrosive environments.
