Jun 23, 2021

Introduction

As a leading provider in the Business and Consumer Services industry, Powder Keg is proud to offer the finest selection of structural angle products, including the high-quality 6061 T6 structural angle. Our even angle and uneven angle options cater to a wide range of structural needs, providing exceptional strength, durability, and versatility.

What is 6061 T6 Structural Angle?

6061 T6 is a specific grade of aluminum alloy renowned for its excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. This structural angle is extruded from 6061 aluminum, which consists of 97.9% aluminum, 0.6% silicon, 0.5% iron, 0.3% copper, 0.2% chromium, 0.1% magnesium, and traces of other elements. The T6 temper designation indicates that the material has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to enhance its strength and durability.

Applications

The 6061 T6 structural angle is widely used in various applications across different industries due to its exceptional properties. Some common applications include:

  • Architectural and construction projects
  • Marine and offshore structures
  • Aerospace components
  • Transportation equipment
  • Industrial machinery
  • Automotive frames
  • Electrical enclosures

Even Angle vs. Uneven Angle

At Powder Keg, we offer both even angle and uneven angle options to suit the specific structural requirements of our customers.

Even Angle

The even angle variant of the 6061 T6 structural angle features equal dimensions for both legs, creating a balanced right angle. This design makes even angle ideal for applications where symmetrical properties and aesthetics are important, such as framing, supports, and architectural installations.

Uneven Angle

The uneven angle variant of the 6061 T6 structural angle features unequal dimensions for each leg, allowing for greater versatility in structural design. Uneven angle is particularly useful in applications that require variable angles, such as bracing, corner reinforcements, and custom framework.
