Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion with aluminum.Employ stainless steel or specialized aluminum fasteners to prevent dissimilar metal corrosion.
Overheating during welding or forming processes, which can compromise the temper and strength of the 6061 alloy.Maintain controlled temperatures during fabrication and consider post-fabrication heat treatment if required by the application.

Common Applications

  • Heat Exchanger Plates
  • HVAC Ductwork Components
