SPECIFICATIONS TEMPER TYPES
This datasheet relates to temper T6511. The most
Commercial 2014A T6511 common temper for aluminium alloy 2014A are:
• T6 - Solution heat treated and artificially aged
• T3 - Solution heat treated, cold worked and naturally
A high strength 4 to 5% Copper alloy produced in aged
extruded bar and profile form, in the fully heat-treated • T6511 - Solution heat treated and stress-relieved by
condition (solution heat-treated & artificially stretching then artificially aged with minor
aged).Normally stocked in the T6511 condition (stress
straightening after aging
relieved by controlled stretching) Except for sizes
• T651 - Solution heat treated, stress relieved by
under 10mm diameter and over 203.2mm diameter.
