6351 aluminum alloy is one of the 6 series alloys with higher strength. The strength is higher than 6061 alloy and slightly lower than 6082 alloy. For example, 6351-T6 profile requires a minimum tensile strength of 295Mpa, which has good extrusion formability.
6351 aluminum extrusion profiles are more versatile Extruded structural materials for highway transportation facilities and aluminum profiles for containers require gas, oil, and water pipelines with high material strength.

Aluminum profiles for containers are mainly 6061, 6082, 6351 alloys, of which 6351 alloys are the most used, accounting for more than 90% of the usage. The products have high strength and good welding performance.
6351 aluminum extrusion profiles mainly used to make the floor inside the box, connecting parts, door sills, forklift guide rails, ground support beams, top support beams, fixed cross beams on the side aluminum plates, upper and lower fixed cross beams, corner connectors in the box, exterior decoration parts, cold air doors, box door frames and door hinges Wait.
