What is 6063 T6 aluminum used for?

6063 T6 aluminum alloy is commonly used in the manufacture of architectural profiles, automotive parts, and aerospace components, in applications requiring high strength and good appearance.

What is T651 in Aluminum?

T651 is a heat treatment designation for 6063 aluminum alloy. It indicates that the aluminum has undergone solution heat treatment, followed by aging (artificial aging) and stress relief. This treatment improves the aluminum's mechanical properties, including strength and hardness. T651 temper is typically used in applications requiring high strength and excellent mechanical performance.

Introduction to 6063 t6 t651 Aluminum Plate Sheet

What is 6063 material grade?

6063 is an aluminum alloy primarily composed of aluminum, magnesium, and silicon. It is known for its good extrudability, high corrosion resistance, and ability to improve surface finish through anodizing. Due to its excellent extrusion properties, it is often used in architectural applications and for creating complex shapes and profiles.

What is the difference between 6063 T5 and 6063 T6?

• 6063 T5: The aluminum is cooled from the extrusion process and then undergoes artificial aging to achieve its properties. It has good extrudability and surface finish but slightly lower strength compared to T6.
• 6063 T6: The material is solution heat-treated and artificially aged. It has higher strength and hardness compared to T5, making it suitable for structural applications that require higher mechanical performance.

What is 6063 Aluminium used for?

6063 aluminum is used in applications where good extrudability, high corrosion resistance, and aesthetics are important. Common uses include:

• Architectural structures (e.g., window frames, door frames)
• Aerospace components
• Marine applications
• Irrigation tubing
• Structural and decorative profiles

What is the difference between 6061 and 6063 T6?

• 6061 T6: Known for its high strength, good mechanical properties, and excellent corrosion resistance. It is often used in structural applications such as aircraft frames, automotive parts, and heavy-duty machinery.
• 6063 T6: Compared to 6061 T6, it has better extrudability and surface finish but lower strength. It is used in applications that require detailed shapes and profiles, such as architectural components.

What is the difference between 6063 T6 and 6082 T6?

• 6063 T6: Offers good extrudability and is mainly used for architectural applications. It has lower strength compared to 6082 T6.
• 6082 T6: Provides higher strength and is commonly used in more demanding structural applications such as bridges, cranes, and aerospace structures. It has better mechanical properties and fatigue resistance compared to 6063 T6.

Is 6063 aluminum stronger than 6061?

No, 6061 aluminum is generally stronger than 6063 aluminum. 6061 has higher tensile strength, yield strength, and overall hardness, making it more suitable for structural and load-bearing applications. In contrast, 6063 is typically chosen for its better extrudability and surface finish rather than its strength.

What is the difference between 6061 and T651?

6061 is a specific aluminum alloy, while T651 is a temper designation. 6061 T651 indicates that the 6061 alloy has undergone heat treatment and stress relief to achieve specific mechanical properties. Therefore, "6061" refers to the alloy itself, while "T651" refers to the temper or processing the alloy has undergone.

What is the difference between 6061 T651 and T6511 aluminum?

• 6061 T651: This is the standard T6 temper with stress relief, where the aluminum undergoes solution heat treatment and artificial aging to achieve high strength and hardness.
• 6061 T6511: This is similar to T651 but with additional control over the stress relief process. It provides slightly improved mechanical properties and better uniformity in material performance.
