Alfiniti, Inc. has registered the 6061-T8 temper with The Aluminium Association and secured its inclusion in the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) standards. This provides a standardized definition of the temper's manufacturing methods and mechanical properties that were unavailable until now. Broader usage of this lightweight temper reduces costs across sectors.

The lightweight and durable 6061-T8 temper has been in use for decades. However, its application was based on individual agreements between companies and suppliers.

Alfiniti, Inc. is a global leader in producing drawn aluminium tubes and pipes, offering products in a wide range of alloys and sizes. With over 55 years of experience, they have extensive tooling capabilities, producing tubes and pipes in Winton, NC and Chicoutimi, QC facilities.
