Does anybody know of a way to test aluminum to make sure it is 6061-T6? I bought some 2x2 tubing locally. He had to order it from another supplier because they didn't keep it in stock. I told him it was for an aircraft and my life depended on it. I heard him ask the supplier on the phone three different times to make sure it was 6061-T6. When i received it, it wasn't stamped and he said that stamping is different with each manufacturer, but he was sure it was correct.
Is there a simple test I can do with a tool or any special qualities that the aluminum will have to tell what it is? I would love to know before I go and build a death machine.
Thanks guys,
Tim
