Aluminium 6082 plates have medium strength and very good corrosion resistance properties. Several vendors promise to deliver the ultimate quality of aluminium plates, but all these vendors lag when it comes to offering that promise—Chhajed Steel Limited stands tall in the list as an extraordinary manufacturer who has consistency in delivering better products. Our aluminium 6082 plates are designed to offer unmatched strength compared to other alloys in this series and are recognised globally as a structural alloy.

This relatively new and advanced alloy has outperformed other 6000 series alloys due to its better strength and is thus used in low-temperature applications. Other added metal elements within the alloy include manganese, chromium, and zinc. Manganese is mainly added to control the grain structure, which greatly improves the performance of the material. Aluminium 6082 plates are, therefore, applicable in uses that avoid complex extrusion shapes.

Machinability in aluminium 6082 plates is to exact specifications in tempers like T651 and T6. A few of the critical physical properties that make this material in great demand include thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, density, and modulus of elasticity. We supply not only standard dimensions but also offer customised plate options according to client requirements at our facility. Clients can specify various sizes, lengths, thicknesses, grades, finishes, and specifications for different applications.

Different tempers in which aluminium 6082 plates are offered include T4, T6, O, and T651. In the case of T4, it is solution heat-treated with natural ageing, suitable for conditions that remain stable; in T6, it is solution heat-treated with artificial ageing, whereas in T651, it is processed using solution heat treatment with stress relief; and O temper is mainly known to have a soft nature.

These plates have good weldability, but strength in the welded zones may be lowered. We advise using 4043 wire to weld. Aluminium 6082 plates can be welded by: gas welding, arc welding, and resistance welding; solderability; and brazability. This alloy has good machinability, and its features are good at low temperature ranges.

At Chhajed Steel Limited, we supply fully detailed product data for the latest specifications, including mechanical, thermal, and physical properties. Our datasheets guarantee accuracy and up-to-date information. Each aluminium 6082 plate will be subjected to several tests, such as hardness, flexibility, PMI, and IGC tests, to ensure top-quality performance. The last step at our place is proper packaging in wooden crates, plastic bags, or wooden pallets, which ensures that your plates arrive in good condition.
