6082 aviation aluminum tube is a high-strength, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy tube, usually used to manufacture aircraft and other aircraft parts.6082-T6 drawn tube is a medium-strength alloy, the strongest among the 6000 series alloys, and has excellent corrosion resistance.
Although 6082 is a relatively new alloy, its increased strength has allowed it to replace 6061 in many applications. In 6082 alloy, we are able to produce thin-walled, complex extruded and drawn tubes.Quick Quote
