6151-T6 is a heat-treated aluminum alloy (Al-Mg-Si) used in aerospace forgings that achieves high strength through solution heat treatment and artificial aging. T6 temper provides enhanced yield strength and tensile strength suitable for structural aircraft components requiring good fatigue resistance and moderate corrosion resistance.
