Aluminum alloy is soft and usually alloyed with copper, zinc, magnesium, silicon, manganese and lithium to increase strength. When aluminum alloy is exposed to air, an anti-oxidant coating will be formed instantly to protect products. Aluminum alloy is one of the lightest metals. The application of products ranges from precision technology to daily commodities.

Temper | Definition |
O | Annealed |
H14 | Strain Hardened, 1/2 Hard |
H112 | Slightly strain harden from working at an elevated temperature or from limited amount of cold work |
T4 | Solution heat-treated and naturally aged |
T5 | Cooled from an elevated temperature shaping process and then artificially aged |
T6 | Solution heat-treated and then artificially aged |
T651 | Solution heat-treated, stress-relieved by stretching a controlled amount and then artificially aged |
T66 | Solution heat-treated and then artificially aged - mechanical property level higher than T6 achieved through special control of the process (6000 series alloys) |
T6511 | Solution heated-treaded, stress-relieved by stretching a controlled amount and then artificially aged. Minor straightening is allowed after stretching to comply with standard tolerances |
