Aluminum 6063-T6

Material type: Metal, Corrosion resistance, Non-magnetic

Aluminum alloy 6063-T6 is a medium-strength aluminum alloy with good corrosion resistance, suitable for construction, machinery, and precision machining applications that require load-bearing capacity and durability.

Process compatibility

CNC Milling CNC Turning

Material Color

Silver white

Material advantages

It possesses excellent processing performance, weldability, corrosion resistance, high toughness, as well as the characteristics of being less prone to deformation after processing, easy to polish and color.

Material shortcomings

It cannot withstand large loads. The CNC machining is average, and the thread durability is limited.

Recommended description

6063-T6 maintains excellent extrusion formability and first-class anodized appearance while having a higher strength than 6063-T5. It has good corrosion resistance and is suitable for extruded structural components with complex cross-sections, high appearance requirements, and moderate load-bearing capacity.
