6063 aluminum alloy has good welding performance, excellent corrosion resistance, moderate strength and good surface treatment, widely used in construction, furniture, transportation,etc. Inquire now!
6063 aluminum sheet belongs to the 6-series aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy. It possesses medium mechanical properties, excellent processability, and good melt fluidity. It can be easily extruded into complex cross-sections with high dimensional accuracy. It is also easy to cut and weld, and its strength can be adjusted through heat treatments such as T5 and T6.
6063 aluminum also offers good thermal conductivity and excellent corrosion resistance. Its performance is further enhanced through treatments such as anodizing. It also offers high material purity and a strong decorative finish, while costing less than high-strength aluminum alloys.

We adopts standard export shipping packaging and bundles steel strips according to the size of the aluminum sheet. According to our delivery experience, a 20-foot container can hold 22 tons of aluminum, and a 40-foot container can hold 25 tons of aluminum. Also, we can customize the packaging according to the needs of customers.
Compared to 6063, 6060 aluminum alloy offers superior tensile and yield strength. Its superior mechanical properties make it a viable alternative to 6063 in applications such as high-end architectural doors and windows and high-strength industrial frames.
In decorative applications such as architectural moldings, curtain wall moldings, and furniture trims, 6463 aluminum alloy can replace 6063, meeting the dual requirements of aesthetics and durability.
For applications such as large building support frames and heavy door frames, where 6063 lacks the required strength, 6005 aluminum alloy can be used as a replacement.
In the manufacturing of industrial machinery parts, automotive chassis brackets, and bicycle frames, where more stringent structural strength and impact resistance are required, 6061 can be used as an upgraded alternative to 6063 aluminum sheet.
In simple radiators and aluminum foil products that do not require high compressive strength but are sensitive to thermal conductivity and cost, 1060 pure aluminum can be used to replace 6063 aluminum alloy.
