the mechanical properties of 6061 depend greatly on the temper, or heat treatment, of the material.Young’s Modulus is 69 GPa (10,000 ksi) regardless of temper

Annealed 6061 (6061-O temper) has maximum tensile strength no more than 120 MPa (18,000 psi), and maximum yield strength no more than 55 MPa (8,000 psi). The material has elongation (stretch before ultimate failure) of 25–30%.
