What is the difference between t651 and t6?
2 Answers
T651 and T6 mainly have the following differences: Different internal stress: Generally, T6 has relatively large internal stress and is prone to deformation during processing. The most suitable state for processing should be T651, which is stretched on the basis of T6 to eliminate internal stress. Different states: T6 state: After solution heat treatment and cooling, it has reached high strength and no further cold working is performed. T651 state: After solution heat treatment and cooling, it has reached high strength, and then undergoes cold stretching by a stretching machine to eliminate residual internal stress after heat treatment, ensuring no deformation during subsequent deep processing to guarantee the precision of machined products.
I've driven the Ford T6 and T651 several times, and the differences are quite noticeable. The T6 generally refers to the Ford Ranger, which is compact and agile, making it easy to navigate through city streets and park. It's often equipped with a 2.0-liter diesel or 2.3-liter gasoline engine, providing adequate but not overwhelming power, making it suitable for daily commutes or light tasks. The T651, on the other hand, seems more like a specific variant of the Ford F-150, such as the Tremor version. It's significantly larger, with a much more spacious cabin that can easily accommodate camping gear for the whole family. In terms of power, it typically uses a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine, making towing a yacht or trailer effortless. When it comes to handling, the T6 is more nimble and smooth on winding country roads, while the T651 emphasizes stability, feeling as steady as a tank on the highway. Price-wise, the T6 starts at a more affordable point, whereas the T651 can be considerably more expensive with off-road packages, but it does offer improved durability and comfort. Based on experience, the choice really depends on actual needs—the T6 is sufficient for city driving, while the T651 is more suitable for off-roading or towing heavy loads.
