| Typical Uses: |
| Architectural applications (window and door frames, curtain walls) | Extruded shapes for furniture and decorative items | Heat sinks | Pipe and tubing in various applications | Railings and fencing |
| Welding: |
| 6063 is readily weldable using various welding methods, including gas metal arc welding (GMAW/MIG), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW/TIG), and resistance welding. It responds well to fusion and resistance welding processes. |
| Corrosion Resistance: |
| 6063 has good corrosion resistance, particularly in outdoor and architectural applications. Its resistance to corrosion can be further enhanced with various surface treatments, such as anodizing. |
6063 Aluminium Sheets
Alloy: 6063 Aluminium Alloy
Temper:
O H14 H24 H18 / T351 T3 T4 T651 T6 / H14 H24 H26 H16 / H32 H111 H321 H116 H112 / T6 T651 / T651 T6 T7451
T5: Cooled from an elevated temperature shaping process and artificially aged. This is the most common temper for 6063 extrusions, providing good strength and formability.
T6: Solution heat-treated and artificially aged. It offers higher strength compared to T5 but may have reduced formability.
