A356 Aluminum Alloy
​
A356 aluminum alloy is made up of 92.05% Aluminum, 7% Silicon,0.35% Magnesium, 0.20% Iron, 0.20% Copper, 0.10% Maganese, and 0.10% Zinc. It is lightweight and extremely corrosion-resistant like stainless steel. If needed, A356 aluminum can be used as a substitute for aluminum alloy 6061.
T6 Heat Treatments
​
T6 is a complex heat treatment and requires the aluminum extruded from the extruder to be instantaneously water cooled. The benefits of the more complex T6 process are an increased hardness of 12-15 on the Webster Hardness Scale and other mechanical properties for the casting.
