6061-T6 aluminum wheels are widely used in automotive and industrial applications due to their combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight properties. The manufacturing process involves precise techniques to ensure high performance, durability, and aesthetic appeal.

Material Selection and Preparation

The process begins with selecting high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. This alloy is known for its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Raw materials are inspected and cut into blanks or billets, which are then prepared for forming through processes like heating or pre-treatment to enhance machinability.

Forging and Forming

Forging is a common method for producing 6061-T6 wheels. The aluminum billet is pressed under high pressure into the desired wheel shape using precision dies. This process aligns the metal’s grain structure, improving strength and fatigue resistance. Alternative methods, such as casting, may be used for complex designs, although forging provides superior mechanical properties.

Machining and Finishing

After forming, the wheels undergo CNC machining to refine dimensions, create mounting holes, and achieve the final design features. Machining ensures that the wheel meets exact specifications for diameter, bolt patterns, and offsets. Surface finishing processes, such as polishing, bead blasting, or coating, enhance corrosion resistance and provide an appealing appearance.

Heat Treatment and Quality Control

6061-T6 aluminum wheels are heat-treated to achieve the T6 temper, which increases hardness and mechanical strength. Rigorous quality inspections follow, including dimensional checks, surface inspections, and performance testing for load, balance, and impact resistance. These steps ensure that the wheels meet industry safety and performance standards.

The wheel has multi-spoke split with steps between the spokes, which adds visual layers and dimensions while also enhancing its overall mechanical beauty. With its unique structure, it shows a strong visual impact. And the high gloss black color, it is the modern sense and texture of this wheel to a new height. The use of forging process ensures the lightweight and strength of the wheel hub. Since it is made of 6061t6-aluminum alloy, slender spokes are also high-strength.  It's ideal for sports GTs, performance sedans and SUVs.
