We are the manufacturer and exporter of EN AW-6082-T6 Aluminium Pipes,6082 T6 Aluminium Tube for ship building with CCS certification.
Aluminium 6082 is a medium strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. It has the highest strength of 6000 series alloys. Alloy 6082 is known as a structural alloy. In plate form, 6082 is the alloy most commonly used for machining. As a relatively new alloy, the higher strength of 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. It is difficult to produce thin walled, complicated extrusion shapes in alloy 6082. The extruded surface finish is not as smooth as other similar strength alloys in the 6000 series. In the T6 and T651 temper, 6082 machines well and produces tight coils of swarf when chip breakers are used.
Alloy 6082 offers good weldability, brazeability, corrosion resistance, formability and machinability. When bending or
forming 6082 alloy, it is recommended to use the -0 or -T4 temper. For machining applications, 6082 provides good machinability in the
-T5 or -T6 tempers. Machining chips may be difficult to break so it is recommended to use chip breakers or special machining
techniques such as peck drilling to improve chip formation. For certain thin wall sections, -T6 temper may not be available due
to alloy quenching limitations.
Various commercial joining methods (welding, brazing, etc.) can be easily applied to 6082 alloy. However since 6082 is a
heat treatable alloy, strength will be reduced in the weld region. For machining applications, allloy 6082 is available in many rod, bar and hex sizes. Refer to Hydro ACC-U-LINETM machine .grade product brochures for more details. Tempers -T6 and -T6511 are listed in ASTM B 221 and ASTM B 241 specifications.
Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for proper safety and handling precautions when using 6082 alloy
