- Notes
- Exact AA6351-T6 as-received extruded rod. Table 1 batch chemistry and the explicitly stated 98.5 HV0.2 base-rod hardness are retained. Zinc is printed as a dash and is not converted to zero. The paper does not state the rod supplier, detailed T6 heat-treatment schedule, hardness repeat count or scatter. Values for drilled rods, Al2O3-filled rods, friction-surfaced deposits and the AA5052-H32 substrate are excluded. This research instance is not a current EN composition limit, minimum property or design allowable.
