6063 aluminum alloy is a low alloyed Al-Mg-Si series high plasticity alloy. It has many valuable features:
1. Strengthened by heat treatment, high impact toughness, insensitive to defects.
2. With excellent thermoplasticity, it can be extruded at high speed into complex, thin-walled and hollow profiles or forged into forgings with complex structure, wide quenching temperature range, low quenching sensitivity, after extrusion and forging demoulding, as long as the temperature is higher than the quenching temperature. It can be quenched by water spray or water penetration. Thin-walled parts (6<3mm) can also be air quenched.
3. Excellent welding performance and corrosion resistance, no stress corrosion cracking tendency. Among the heat-treatable-strengthened aluminum alloys, Al-Mg-Si alloys are the only alloys that have not found stress corrosion cracking.
4. The surface after processing is very smooth and easy to anodize and color. The disadvantage is that if it is parked at room temperature for a period of time after quenching, it will adversely affect the strength (parking effect) during aging.
Typical use
6063 aluminum alloy is widely used in building profiles, irrigation pipes, pipes, rods and profiles for vehicles, benches, furniture, lifts, fences, etc. In order to ensure that doors, windows and curtain walls have high wind pressure resistance, assembly performance, corrosion resistance and decorative performance, the comprehensive performance requirements for aluminum alloy profiles are much higher than the industrial profile standards.
