6061 Aluminum Sheet Tempers

6061-T4 Aluminum

6061-T4 sheet is solution heat-treated and naturally aged, resulting in slightly lower tolerance precision than 6061-T6, which is artificially aged.
T4 is more cost-effective than T6 and offers a higher elongation rate, providing enhanced formability.
Overall, 6061-T4 sheet delivers better workability and is more economical than the T6 temper.

6061-T6 Aluminum

6061-T6 aluminum is artificially aged, delivering:

Higher tensile and yield strength than T4

Good surface finishing qualities

Excellent weldability

Compatibility with anodizing

6061-T651 Aluminum

This timber is artificially aged and then mechanically stretched to relieve internal stresses, producing improved dimensional stability.
