6063 Aluminum Pipe

6063-T6 Aluminum Pipe is one of the magnesium silicon alloys of aluminum. These are used to improve the strength and corrosion resistance properties of aluminum. This type of material could be heat treated after production to improve the strength and be hardened. The 6063-T5 Aluminum Pipe has good tensile strength and good elongation of 8%. There are different schedules and classes to denote different mechanical properties of the material. The 6063 Schedule 40 Aluminum Pipe governs the wall thickness of pipes with nominal size from 1.25 inches to 6 inches. The 6063 T4 Aluminum Pipe is considered the architectural aluminum grade because of its used in the architectural industries in the most cases. The 6063 Aluminum Seamless Pipe is drawn from the raw material and therefore has a good finish. The fine grain structure of the material also makes it possible for fine anodizing. The Aluminum 6063 Welded Pipe is stronger and could also is welded upon. The used of t4, t5, t6 types of the material are seen in different industries. The 6063 classes are welded with tungsten inert gas welding.

They are used in architectural structures that are visible and give aesthetic appeal. The 6063-T6 Aluminum Hollow Pipes are one of the most used types of pipe but there are other types. The shapes also differ. The Aluminum 6063-T6 Round Pipe is the most used shape but there are the other shapes such as the 6063-T5 Aluminum Square Pipes, rectangular pipes, hexagonal pipes and others. The applications of this grade include window frames, roofs, door frames, sign frames. These are comparatively medium strength. Where structurally strong aluminum alloys are needed, the use of 6061 or 6062 is recommended. The Aluminum 6063-T5 Schedule 40 Pipes are one of the schedules that govern the wall thickness of different nominal sizes of the pipes.
