Alloy 6082 offers good weldability, brazeability, corrosion resistance, formability and machinability. When bending or forming
6082 alloy, it is recommended to use the -0 or -T4 temper. For machining applications, 6082 provides good machinability in
the -T5 or -T6 tempers. Machining chips may be difficult to break so it is recommended to use chip breakers or special
machining techniques such as peck drilling to improve chip formation. For certain thin wall sections, -T6 temper may not
be available due to alloy quenching limitations.
