6101
Aluminum 6101-T61/T65 Product Guide
Overview
6101 is best suited for applications involving moderate strength and maximum electrical conductivity. It is similar to alloy 6063, but with minor chemistry changes which enhance electrical conductivity. Although slightly lower in conductivity than alloy 1350, it offers greater strength. It is typically used for bus bar and other electrical applications.
