Hogue quality tests and inspect every batch of Aluminum material before during and after every phase of the manufacturing process to ensure that the Hogue Extreme Series Aluminum Grips for Ruger 22/45 RP meets the highest standards of quality. Aluminum is the third most abundant element and the most abundant metal in the Earth's crust. Aluminum in its purist form is too reactive and soft to be of any structural use. However mixing aluminum with various other elements such as Silicon Copper and Magnesium creates an aluminum alloy which is structurally much stronger and is of more use in the manufacturing of durable goods. It's all in the numbers - 6061-T6: Aluminum alloys can be divided into grades from 1XXX to 7XXX. 6061 grade aluminum is used for a wide variety of products and applications from truck bodies and frames to structural aircraft and aerospace components. 6061 can be further strengthened through a combined tempering process of solution heat treatment and artificial aging. The end material is now designated as 6061-T6 aluminum. The "T" signifies tempering and the "6" is the tempering method. Unfortunately the downside of the tempering process is that it can produce internal stresses. These stresses may cause a finished machined part to distort over time. Going the extra step - 6061-T6511: Stretching extruded 6061-T6 aluminum by up to 3percent of its length can help relieve the internal stresses and produce a permanent set thereby reducing the possibility of distortion of a finished machined part. Hogue Ruger 22 Grips Aluminum and other Hogue Extreme Aluminum grips forends and knife frames are machined exclusively from 6061-T6511 aluminum...giving you the best possible fit and function over a lifetime of use Specifications for Hogue Grips for Ruger 22/45 RP Aluminum: Manufacturer: Hogue Color: Green Anodize Finish: Matte Gun Make: Ruger Gun Model: Ruger 22/45 Package Contents: Hogue Ruger 22/45 RP Aluminum Hogue 82141: Ruger 22/45 RP Aluminum - Matte Green Anodize
