6082 aluminum alloy sheet is a heat-treatable alloy with the highest strength among the 6000 series alloys. 6082 aluminum alloy plate is called a structural alloy.
6082 aluminum alloy is a medium-strength alloy with good corrosion resistance, formability, weldability, and machinability.
The comprehensive performance of 6082 aluminium alloy sheet is better than that of 6061 aluminum alloy, and it has become an important material in aerospace, automobiles, ships, construction and other fields.
6082 aluminum alloy sheet is a very commonly used alloy product in Europe and is also highly used in the United States. 6082 alloy generally has good processing characteristics and good anodic reaction properties. The most commonly used anodic reaction methods include impurity removal, impurity removal and dyeing, coating, etc.

As a relatively new alloy, the higher strength of Aluminium alloy 6082 has seen it replace 6061 in many applications.
The addition of a large amount of manganese controls the grain structure which in turn results in a stronger alloy.
Common sizes of 6082 aluminum sheets can vary depending on the supplier, production plant and specific application. Here are some possible common size ranges for 6082 aluminum sheets:
Width: The width of the aluminum plate ranges from 100-2000mm
Length: The production range of 6082 aluminum plate length is 500-6000mm
Common sizes are:
6082 aluminum alloy has good weldability, but the strength of the welded area is low. When welding itself, it is recommended to use 4043 alloy wire. If welding aluminum alloys 6082 to 7005, the wire used should be alloy 5356.
6082 aluminum is classified as a medium-strength aluminum alloy but is one of the strongest commonly used alloys in the 6000 series. If it is heat treated to T651, it is the strongest alloy in the 6000 series(6061 aluminum, 6063 aluminum, 6082 aluminum). When compared to 6061 aluminum alloy, another common 6000 series grade, 6082-T651 has between 10 and 18 % higher tensile strength.
The 6082 aluminum alloy has a melting temperature of 585 °C. However, its optimal working temperature is at or below 170 °C, as the mechanical strength of the alloy decreases proportionally as the operating temperature approaches the melting point. Aluminum alloys are not designed for high-temperature applications. If high-temperature resistance is required, steels are a better option.
The O and T4 tempers of Alloy 6082 are suitable for bending and forming applications.
T5 and T6 conditions are suitable for requirements of good machinability.
6082 aluminum alloy is widely used in many fields due to its good strength, corrosion resistance and lightweight properties. The following are common application areas of 6082 aluminum alloy:
Aerospace industry: 6082 aluminium alloy is commonly used to manufacture aircraft structures and components, such as wings, fuselages, landing gear, etc. Its lightweight and high strength allow aircraft to reduce their own weight and improve fuel efficiency and performance.
Shipbuilding: 6082 aluminum alloy is used to manufacture ship hull structures, ship parts and ship equipment. Its corrosion resistance gives it good durability in seawater environments.
Transportation: 6082 aluminium alloy is also widely used in other types of transportation, such as trains, bicycles, and motorcycles, to improve the performance and durability of transportation.
Automobile industry: 6082 aluminum alloy also has important applications in automobile manufacturing, especially in the manufacture of body structures, chassis parts and engine parts. Its lightweight properties help improve fuel efficiency and reduce overall vehicle weight.
Construction and Structural Engineering: 6082 aluminum alloy is used in the construction and structural fields to manufacture bridges, building frames, support structures, etc. Its high strength helps provide necessary structural support.
Sporting Goods: Due to its light weight, strength and corrosion resistance, 6082 aluminum alloy is often used to manufacture sporting goods, such as hiking poles, bicycle frames, etc.
