6061 T6 Aluminum Alloy Forged Flange
The selection of 6061 T6 aluminum alloy as the material for forged flanges is a well-informed choice with long-term industry practice. It belongs to the heat-treatable aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy series, and its comprehensive performance is significantly enhanced through the T6 heat treatment process (solution treatment followed by artificial aging).
The perfect balance of high strength and lightweight: 6061 T6 aluminum alloy boasts a tensile strength of approximately 290 MPa and a yield strength of around 255 MPa, earning its reputation as a "hardcore performer" within the aluminum alloy family. Meanwhile, its density is roughly one-third that of steel, meaning it can significantly reduce the overall weight of equipment while maintaining structural integrity—critical for industries like aerospace and transportation.
Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Thanks to its alloy composition, 6061 aluminum alloy exhibits outstanding corrosion resistance in environments such as the atmosphere and fresh water, enabling long-term stable operation under complex working conditions.
Excellent Machinability: At high temperatures, 6061 aluminum alloy exhibits outstanding plasticity and fluidity, making it highly suitable for forging complex-shaped large forgings through forging processes.

Heavy Forging Press Capacity
Our heavy-duty forging presses support open-die forging and deformation of large-section forgings, including discs, shafts, blocks, and custom components. This capability enables us to meet the demanding forming requirements of heavy industrial applications.
Heat Treatment Capability
Heat treatment is a critical step in achieving the mechanical properties required for heavy-duty forgings. Our process capabilities meet the strength, toughness, and structural stability requirements for forged components used under demanding operating conditions.
Heavy Shaft Machining
We offer machining capabilities for large forged shafts and long cylindrical components, supporting both rough and finish machining. This capacity is suitable for stepped shafts, rotor shafts, rollers, and other heavy-duty forged shaft components.
Ring Forging Machining
Our machining facilities are capable of handling large ring-shaped forgings and circular parts that require precise turning, face machining, boring, and contour control. This capability is suitable for industrial ring blanks, heavy-duty circular parts, and machined ring forgings.
Cylindrical Forging Machining
We offer machining solutions for heavy-duty cylindrical, hollow, and tubular forgings. This capability supports the machining of sleeves, cylinders, and other thick-walled forged components used in pressure vessels, rotating systems, and general industrial applications.
Inspection & Testing
Quality control is integrated into our production process through the inspection and testing of forged and machined parts. Our capabilities help verify the dimensional accuracy, condition, and quality consistency of industrial forgings prior to delivery.
Packing & Delivery
Finished forgings are properly protected and packaged to minimize the risk of damage during storage and transportation. Our packaging methods ensure the safe domestic delivery and export shipment of machined and high-value forged components.
