Aluminium 6082 Fasteners are high-strength aluminium alloy fastening components manufactured for applications where low weight, good mechanical strength and corrosion resistance are important. Alloy 6082 belongs to the 6000 series of aluminium alloys and contains magnesium, silicon and manganese as its principal alloying elements.
We supply 6082-T6 Aluminum Bolts and Screws, nuts, washers, threaded rods, studs and other fasteners in different dimensions and configurations. The T6 temper provides significantly higher strength than the annealed or softer tempers, making it suitable for structural and engineering applications.
Also identified as EN AW-6082, UNS A96082 and DIN 3.2315, this alloy is widely selected for transportation equipment, marine structures, industrial assemblies, architectural applications and lightweight engineering systems.
What Are Aluminium 6082 Fasteners?
Aluminium 6082 Fasteners are high-strength aluminium alloy bolts, nuts, screws, studs, washers and threaded components made from EN AW-6082 alloy. The alloy is also identified as UNS A96082 and DIN 3.2315. In the T6 temper, 6082 provides a strong combination of lightweight construction, corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, making it suitable for structural, marine, transportation and industrial fastening applications.
What Is Aluminium Alloy 6082?
Aluminium 6082 is a heat-treatable aluminium alloy from the 6000 series. It is commonly known as AlSi1MgMn because silicon, magnesium and manganese contribute to its overall performance.
The alloy can be solution heat treated and artificially aged to achieve higher mechanical properties. For fasteners, 6082-T6 is one of the most commonly specified tempers when higher strength is required.
Its relatively low density helps reduce assembly weight compared with conventional steel fasteners. At the same time, its corrosion resistance makes it useful where exposure to atmospheric or moderately corrosive environments is expected.

Chemical Composition of Aluminium 6082
The chemical composition below represents the typical EN AW-6082 alloy range. Exact limits should be confirmed against the applicable material specification and purchase order.
| Element | Typical / Specified Range (%) |
|---|---|
| Magnesium (Mg) | 0.60–1.20 |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.70–1.30 |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.40–1.00 |
| Iron (Fe) | ≤ 0.50 |
| Copper (Cu) | ≤ 0.10 |
| Zinc (Zn) | ≤ 0.20 |
| Chromium (Cr) | ≤ 0.25 |
| Titanium (Ti) | ≤ 0.10 |
| Aluminium (Al) | Balance |
The magnesium-silicon combination allows the alloy to respond to heat treatment, while manganese contributes to strength and structural stability.
Mechanical Properties of 6082-T6 Fasteners
