Aluminium alloy 6005/6005A is a medium strength, heat treatable alloy with excellent corrosion resistance.
Alloy 6005/6005A has properties between those of alloys 6061 and 6082 and can sometimes be used interchangeably
with these alloys but 6005/6005A has better extrusion characteristics. It has a better mill surface finish, but it is
difficult to produce thin-wall complicated shapes in 6005/6005A.
6005/6005A tube has very good bending properties.
The weldability of 6005/6005A is excellent.4043 welding wire is recommended unless joining to one of the 7XXX series.
In this case 5356 wire is the suggested alternative.
Temper:
As 6005/6005A is usually supplied in tube or extruded form. Its' most common temper is T5. This temper denotes that
the material has been cooled from an elevated temperature for the shaping process and then artificially aged.
Applications:
6005 and 6005A find application in intricate extrusions like:
Tubing for furniture,
Railway and bus profile structures,
Pylons, platforms and pipelines,
Portable ladders,
Sections where greater strength is needed than given by 6060 and 6063
