M82 is 6082T651 Alloy but a higher quality product than "normal" 6082 flatter and more stable, and made to tighter than normal tolerances and produced with a linished and protected surface specifically to help you meet the ever increasing demands faced in a marketplace that has never been so competitive.
M82 is manufactured at one of the most modern aluminium rolling mills in the world. Located in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, Hulett Aluminium has been producing high quality semi- fabricated products since 1948. The company employs advanced technology in remelt, hot rolling, solution heat treatment, stretching and surface finishing, expertise that provides all Hulett Aluminium’s products with a leading edge in quality and performance.
M82 will help reduce your costs & increase your productivity because...
It is produced to 0.7 of EN485’s thickness & flatness tolerances - saving you money on buying material you don’t need, & saving you machining time.
It remains stable even during machining - reducing the number of wasted components.
Both surfaces are linished & polycoated - no wasted time ‘cleaning up’ surfaces & it anodises well!
