ERGAL 6082

Ergal 6082 is a light and strong aluminium alloy with excellent machinability, excellent corrosion resistance and good weldability.

With its balance of mechanical strength, low weight and ease of machining, Ergal 6082 is ideal for structural applications and components subject to stress.

Its excellent corrosion resistance makes it perfect for wet or marine environments, while the possibility of anodising further enhances its aesthetics and durability.

Why use Ergal 6082?

1
Excellent mechanical resistance
- Tensile strength between 300-340 MPa (higher than the 6061but less than 7075)
- Good compromise between strength and weight
2
Lightweight but strong
- About 1/3 the weight of steelideal for structural components
3
Excellent corrosion resistance
- Very higher than 7075, great for wet or marine environments
- Ideal for components exposed to weathering
4
Good workability
- Easy to turn and mill, excellent for precision small parts
- Good surface finish
5
Excellent weldability
- Much more weldable than the 7075
- Perfect for structures assembled by welding
6
High fatigue and impact resistance
- Excellent for components subject to repeated stresses
7
Anodisable
- Can be anodised to improve strength and appearance
