SIST EN 3341:2005 - Aerospace series - Aluminium alloy AL-P6061-T4 or T42 - Sheet and strip - 0,4 mm <a <6 mm

Overview

EN 3341:2005 is a CEN (Aerospace series) standard that specifies material and product requirements for aluminium alloy AL‑P6061 in the temper T4 or T42, supplied as sheet and strip with thicknesses from 0.4 mm to 6.0 mm. Prepared by AECMA‑STAN and adopted by CEN, this standard is part of the European aerospace metallic materials series and sets chemical, metallurgical and inspection requirements for aerospace use.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Material designation: Aluminium alloy AL‑P6061 (T4 / T42 conditions).
  • Geometric scope: Sheet and strip, rolled, thickness a: 0.4 mm ≤ a ≤ 6 mm.
  • Chemical composition: The standard defines limits for alloying elements (Si, Fe, Cu, Mn, Mg, Cr, Zn, Ti and Al) consistent with aerospace AL‑P6061 requirements.
  • Delivery and use conditions: Accepted delivery conditions include F, O, H111 and T4; use conditions include T4 and T42.
  • Heat treatment: Solution heat treatment at 520 °C to 540 °C, water quench (WQ) with quench temperature ≤ 40 °C, followed by natural ageing at ambient temperature for at least 5 days (where applicable).
  • Mechanical properties & testing: The standard specifies proof stress, tensile strength and elongation requirements that vary with temper and thickness bands (0.4–3.0 mm and 3.0–6.0 mm). Test pieces, sample directions (longitudinal LT) and ambient test temperature are defined and references are made to EN 4400‑2 for detailed sampling and test procedures.
  • Inspection & quality: Dimensional, marking and external defect inspections are performed per EN 4400‑2. Batch uniformity, product qualification and marking rules are referenced to the aerospace series procedures.
  • Other requirements: Typical hardness value and bending/impact notes are included; specific limits and acceptance criteria are aligned with EN 4400‑2.

Applications and users

Who uses EN 3341:2005:

  • Aerospace material engineers and designers specifying aluminium sheet/strip for airframe and secondary structural components.
  • Manufacturers and suppliers of aerospace aluminium sheet and strip (rolling mills, processors).
  • Quality, procurement and certification teams verifying material conformity to aerospace standards. Practical applications include specification and procurement of AL‑P6061 sheet/strip for panels, fittings, structural details and other aerospace components where a T4/T42 condition is required.
