Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 6061 aluminum stock sheet provides exceptional dimensional accuracy for critical filtering media support. Composed of Aluminum Alloy 6061, it exhibits excellent corrosion resistance due to its magnesium and silicon content, achieving a tensile strength of approximately 45,000 psi and a yield strength of 40,000 psi. This alloy's inherent machinability facilitates precise fabrication of complex filter geometries and housings. Its non-magnetic properties are advantageous in sensitive filtration processes. The sheet's substantial thickness of 0.697 inches offers superior structural integrity for high-pressure or heavy-load filtration setups.
