I want to use 6061 t6 aluminum plate to replace it and i am wondering what thickness of aluminum plate would give me roughly the same strength as the original 5 8 osb.
1 4 inch aluminum plate strength.
6061 t651 aluminum plate has a tensile strength range of 42 45 ksi and conforms to ams qq a 250 11 asme sb209 and astm b209.
For that same sample plate region having made the aluminum plate 1 5 times as thick as the steel plate the as welded one and a half inch aluminum plate will have roughly 34 5k psi per square area yield slightly behind steel.
In terms of ultimate strength in the as welded condition the 150 thicker aluminum plate comes to roughly 58 5k.
Call for specific tolerance if needed.
If you ve got designs you would like to turn into a real metal parts now is the time.
Mill thickness tolerance ranges from 0 to 014 0 130 depending on thickness.
All parts waterjet cut from 1 4 inch thick aluminum 6061 and ordered online will automatically receive a quantity discount.
6061 aluminum plate is heat treatable resists cracking due to stress is easy to weld and machine but limited on formability.

Aluminum 6061 is a strong weldable corrosion resistant alloy.
