Where to Buy AA 6201 Aluminum Alloy

Description

AA 6201 is an aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy developed specifically for high-strength electrical conductor wire, offering higher strength than 1350 (EC aluminum) while maintaining adequate electrical conductivity. It achieves T81 temper strength through continuous rod drawing and artificial aging, providing resistance to sag under sustained load. The alloy is used in overhead electrical transmission conductors, particularly AAAC (All-Aluminum Alloy Conductor) overhead power lines.
