Why not use 6061-T6 is exactly the question I am asking myself...
Yes I have an amateur wing design project and found a local company offering a kit for a similar wing (with this 6005-T5 spar). Because of the time economy, I played with the idea. But I had no clue of this 6005-T5 so asked...
Thanks for this answer kenvlash
I am worried buy the fracture toughtness weakness, furthermore by the absence of information.
Is 6013 used in extrusions ? It seems more used for machined parts from block
Hello,
Does anybody have knowledge or experience about using aluminum alloy 6005-T5 for a small aircraft extruded wing spar in direct replacement of 6061-T6 ?
Would you recommand it ?
I cannot find anything on the subject and are completely ignorant....
Thanks for any input !
