The product is a medium strength rolled plate, solution heat-treated, artificially aged, and stress relieved to achieve the 'T651' condition. It is officially specified for thicknesses between 6 and 25mm, with ultrasonic testing applied to 12 to 25mm thick plates. Plates up to 127mm thick are made to chemical composition standards, often meeting mechanical properties as well.
