The Difference between 6063 Aluminum Alloy T5 and T6

T5 and T6 are a type of heat treatment.

T5 is the aluminum extruded from the extruder with the rapid cooling of the air cooled aluminum (Webster Hardness hardness 8--12).

T6 is the aluminum extruded from the extruder with the instantaneous cooling water aluminum, the aluminum to achieve higher hardness (Webster Hardness above 13.5) general T5 air-cooled in profile factory when quenching, T6 adopts water cooling in the quenching profiles factory. General T5 state, if the rod deflection and tensile strength of the slightly less pass, available T6. The strength of T6 and some are better than T5, but T6 is generally higher than the high price of T5 Yuan 500-1000. T5 adopts air cooling in the quenching of T6 section steel mill, generally adopts water cooling in the quenching profiles factory.General T5 state, if the rod deflection and tensile strength of the slightly less pass, avaliable T6. The strength of T6 and some are better than T5, but T6 is generally higher than the high price of T5 Yuan 500-1000.

In addition, T5 adopts air cooling in the quenching of T6 section steel mill, generally adopts water cooling in the quenching profiles factory. Two of the same modulus. General T5 state, if the rod deflection and tensile strength of the slightly less pass, available T6. The strength of T6 and some are better than T5, but T6 is generally higher than the high price of T5 Yuan 500-1000.
