Aluminium 6082 is primarily an alloy made up of aluminum (the majority), with magnesium (0.6–1.2%), silicon (0.7–1.3%), and trace amounts of manganese (0.4–1.0%), iron, copper, and chromium. It showcases excellent mechanical properties, featuring a tensile strength of 260–310 MPa, yield strength around 210–260 MPa, and elongation rates between 8–12%, depending on the temper. This alloy is known for its good corrosion resistance, especially in marine settings, along with strong weldability and moderate machinability, making it ideal for forging applications that demand structural integrity and durability.

Forging Aluminum 6082 involves heating the alloy to a specific temperature, applying pressure through hammering or pressing, and shaping it into custom forms. The process improves strength and durability.
The workability of Aluminum 6082 affects the forging process by enabling good formability at elevated temperatures, allowing for complex shapes. However, it requires precise control to avoid cracking or deformation.
Aluminium 6082 forgings find extensive use in structural and engineering applications where strength and resistance to corrosion are crucial. They are particularly favored in the aerospace and automotive industries for creating chassis components, suspension parts, and other load-bearing structures. In construction, 6082 forgings are essential materials for bridges, cranes, and heavy-duty frameworks. The alloy is also utilized in marine equipment for hulls and fittings, taking advantage of its resistance to seawater corrosion. Furthermore, Aluminium 6082 forgings are employed in machinery manufacturing and transportation equipment, striking a perfect balance between lightweight performance and mechanical strength.
