Isis Metals, located in Manila, Philippines, has earned a solid reputation as a reliable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch Aluminium 6061 Forgings. With a strong focus on precision engineering and a commitment to quality, the company produces forged aluminum components that adhere to international standards for strength, durability, and performance. Aluminium 6061 is celebrated for being one of the most adaptable heat-treatable alloys, striking a perfect balance between mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability. At Isis Metals, advanced forging technology and strict quality control measures ensure that their Aluminium 6061 forgings are ideal for a variety of applications, including aerospace, automotive, marine, and structural uses.
Aluminium 6061 Forgings primarily consist of aluminum alloyed with magnesium (0.8–1.2%) and silicon (0.4–0.8%), along with trace amounts of copper and chromium. This unique blend results in a tensile strength that typically ranges from 240 to 310 MPa, along with impressive resistance to both atmospheric and marine corrosion. The alloy is known for its good toughness, fatigue strength, and machinability, which can be further improved through heat treatment (T6 temper) to enhance mechanical performance. Its ability to maintain dimensional stability and strength post-forging makes it a perfect choice for precision components.

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.
These Aluminium 6061 Forgings find extensive use in aircraft fittings, automotive frames, marine hardware, and structural components that demand high strength-to-weight ratios. They’re also commonly used in machinery parts, pipelines, and construction frameworks due to their durability and ease of fabrication. Additionally, Aluminium 6061 forgings are popular for pressure vessels, bicycle frames, and transportation equipment. With its remarkable combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and workability, Aluminium 6061 stands out as one of the most favored and dependable alloys for general-purpose forging applications.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
