6061 T6 Aluminum Sheet is an aluminum sheet prodsuct that is very versatile and has a wide range of applications. 6061 Aluminum sheet is made from one of the most widely used heat treatable aluminum alloys. This sheet has excellent corrosion resistance, good workability and good machinability. 6061 sheet applications include a wide variety of prodsucts from medical assemblies, aircraft construction to structural components. 6061 t6 aluminum sheet has a high strength to weight ratio making it ideal for any application where parts need to be light.
6063 aluminum sheet is very similar to 6061 aluminum sheet. The main alloying elements of 6063 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, which have excellent processing performance, excellent weld-ability, good mechanical properties, extrusion and plating, good corrosion resistance, toughness, easy polishing, upper coating, and excellent anodizing effect. The most common used temper of aluminum sheet 6063 is T1, T5 and T6, 6063 has an ultimate tensile strength with every temper. The thickness of aluminium sheet 6063 is 0.3 to 600 mm, the width is 500 to 2600 mm, the length is 500 to 16000 mm.
6061 aluminum sheet and 6063 aluminum sheet are both belong to the 6000 series aluminum alloy, they are similar but still have difference. The main alloying elements of 6061 and 6063 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon. 6061 aluminum has more alloy elements content than 6063 aluminum. With excellent processing performance, excellent weldability, extrusion and electroplating, good corrosion resistance, toughness. Easy to polish, coated, and anodized, is a typical extruded alloy.
