6151 Aluminum

Verifiedmetal

6151 is an aluminum-copper-magnesium alloy designed for structural aerospace applications requiring moderate strength and good machinability. The T6 temper (solution heat-treated and artificially aged) provides tensile strengths of approximately 40-45 ksi with improved hardness and dimensional stability compared to softer tempers.

Quality & Standards

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
