The 6016 aluminum sheet is a 6xxx series heat treatable wrought aluminum alloy composed primarily of aluminum with magnesium and silicon. It offers high strength, excellent formability, good corrosion resistance, and strong paint bake hardening characteristics, making it ideal for demanding engineering and manufacturing uses. This alloy is commonly supplied in T4 and T6 tempers, providing options for moderate ductility or higher strength depending on process requirements.
