What Is 6061/T2 Aluminum Copper Clad Plate?
6061/T2 aluminum copper clad plate is a bimetallic composite material that combines 6061 aluminum alloy with T2 pure copper through advanced processes such as explosion welding and hot rolling. This combination delivers the best of both metals—high electrical conductivity from copper and lightweight corrosion resistance from aluminum.
6061/T2 Aluminum Copper Clad Plate Key Material Features
6061 Aluminum: Lightweight, strong, excellent corrosion resistance
T2 Copper: High purity (≥99.9%), superior thermal and electrical conductivity
Composite Bonding: Excellent metallurgical bonding through explosion + rolling
