ALPLAN 6082

Rolled Plate ALPLAN EN AW 6082

Precision plates in ALPLAN 6082 are milled on both sides and have a very low level of residual stress, thus avoiding excessive deformation during machining.

Precision plates in ALPLAN6082 are milled on both sides and have a very low level of residual stress, thus avoiding excessive deformation during machining.

Thanks to its very good dimensional stability and the elimination of surface milling operations, ALPLAN6082 plates enable to realise significant cost and time savings in machining, when compared to normal rolled plates.
