Semih Metals, in Istanbul, Turkey, makes and supplies excellent metal products. One of its strong offerings is Aluminium 6061 Forgings. This alloy is known for being lightweight yet strong, making it a good choice where weight matters but strength cannot be compromised. When the aluminium is forged (shaped under heat and pressure), it becomes tougher and more reliable. Semih Metals ensures these forgings meet global quality standards. Customers in aerospace, automotive, marine, and general engineering turn to Aluminium 6061 Forgings because they combine strength, good resistance to corrosion, and good workability.
Aluminium 6061 Forgings are mainly made from aluminium mixed with magnesium and silicon, along with small amounts of other elements. This mix gives the alloy good strength and excellent resistance to corrosion. Forged 6061 has high tensile strength, good hardness, and can handle pressure without bending or cracking. It is also easy to machine, weld, and finish, which makes it very useful for different industries. Semih Metals carefully tests each forging to make sure it has the right strength, durability, and uniform quality for safe and reliable use.

Aluminum 6061 offers excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, machinability, weldability, and thermal conductivity, making it ideal for custom forgings in aerospace, automotive, and structural applications.
Aluminum 6061 is not ideal for high-temperature forging due to its lower melting point and limited high-temperature strength. It is better suited for structural applications, not extreme heat environments.
Aluminium 6061 Forgings are used in many fields because they are strong, light, and corrosion-resistant. In the aerospace industry, they are used for parts like frames, brackets, and fittings. In the automotive field, they are chosen for wheels, suspension arms, and structural parts where both safety and weight savings matter. In marine applications, they are trusted for boat fittings and hardware because they can handle salty environments. They are also common in general engineering and machinery for making parts that need toughness but are easy to machine. Semih Metals supplies 6061 Forgings that ensure lasting performance in all conditions.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
Semih Metals is a leading manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of high-quality bars, rods, and forgings, catering to various industries in Istanbul, Turkey
