Units
Condition
- Condition
- AA6005-T6 industrially cast, hot-extruded, water-quenched and artificially aged plate
- Temper
- T6
- Heat treatment
- billet homogenized at 560 degC for 12 h; plate water quenched after 530 degC extrusion; artificially aged at 170 degC for 12 h
- Product form
- hot-extruded plate
- Thickness / diameter range
- 2 mm thick x 110 mm wide
- Test direction
- transverse direction (TD)
- Processing route
- 127 mm industrial DC-cast billet, homogenized, preheated to 500 degC, direct hot extruded at 530 degC, water quenched and artificially aged
- Temperature range
- Tensile tests were conducted at ambient temperature; the exact temperature is not stated.
- Notes
- Experimental values for one AA6005-T6 2 mm extruded plate and TD direction. The tensile test was repeated three times but Table 2 gives no dispersion. The Table 2 caption contains an apparent AA6605 typo; its alloy row, methods and article text consistently identify AA6005. These are not EN product minima.
