The internationally accepted chemical composition for the6101 aluminum alloy: GradeSiFeCuMnMgCrNiZnTiZrImputiryAl61010.30 0.70.50.100.030.35 0.80.03-0.10--0.10Remainer Sth more about 6101: 6101 is a heat treatable wrought alloy and is best suited for applications involving moderate strength and maximum electrical conductivity. It is similar to alloy 6063, but with minor chemistry changes which enhance electrical conductivity. Although slightly lower in conductivity than alloy 1350, it offers greater strength .6101 can be produced in extruded rod, bar, structural profiles, structural and seamless pipe and tube. Although this alloy is primarily used for bus conductor applications (bus bar is available with sharp corners or radius corners), it is also an excellent choice for other electrical projects.6101 is available in various temper conditions and as a result, the purchaser does not have to worry about additional heat treating. The wide variety of tempers provide different strengths, formability, and electrical conductivity levels which allows for design flexibility.6101 offers good weldability, corrosion resistance, bendability, formability, and electrical and thermal conductivity. It satisfies all ASTM B 317 specifications for a wide variety of tempers covering a broad range of mechanical properties and electrical conductivity levels.6101's typical applications include: electrical bus conductor,power transmission products (bar, beams, tubing ) power stations and custom shapes.Sth more about ALUMINUM and the ALUMINUM ALLOY : light in weight, commercially pure aluminum has a tensile strength of about 13,000 psi. Cold working the metal approximately doubles its strength.In orer to increase strength, aluminum is alloyed with elements such as manganese, silicon, copper, magnesium, or zinc. The alloys can also be strengthened by cold working. Some alloys are further strengthened and hardened by heat treatments. At subzero tem, aluminum is stronger than at room tem and is no less ductile. Most aluminum alloys lose strength at elevated temperatures, although some retain significant strength to 500°F. Besides a high strength-to-weight ratio and good formability, aluminum also possesses its own anticorrosion mechanism. When exposed to air, aluminum does not oxidize progressively because a hard, microscopic oxide coating forms on the surface and seals the metal from the environment. The tight chemical oxide bond is the reason that aluminum is not found in nature; it exists only as a compound.Our moulds cover nearly all the specifications the customers need, base on the absolutely qualified mechanical properties.
