6063 Aluminum sheet is widely used in frame construction aluminum doors and windows, curtain walls, in order to ensure the high wind resistance performance, assembly performance, corrosion resistance and decorative properties, the comprehensive performance requirements of the Aluminum Alloy is much higher than the industrial standard. 6063 alloy has lower strength than 6061 alloy, it is with good extrusion, corrosion resistance and good surface treatment. 6063 belongs to low alloying Al-Mg-Si series high plasticity alloy. It has many valuable features.


1. heat treatment strengthening, high impact toughness, not sensitive to defects.
 2. have excellent thermoplastic, can be squeezed into a high-speed complex structure, quenching temperature has big range, the quenching sensitivity is low.
 3. excellent weld-ability and corrosion resistance, no tendency of stress corrosion cracking. Al-Mg-Si alloy is the only alloy that does not find stress corrosion cracking in heat treated reinforced aluminum alloy.
 4. after processing, the surface is very smooth, and easy for anodizing and coloring. The disadvantage is that stored after being quenched at room temperature for a period of time, it will have a negative impact on the strength (parking effect).

The temper of 6063 aluminum sheet can be O, T4, T6, T651, the thickness can be 0.3-600 mm, the width can be 500-2600 mm, the length can be500-16000 mm. 6063 aluminum sheet with its good plasticity, moderate heat treatment strength, good welding performance and anodic oxidation treatment, surface color gorgeous and many other advantages, and is widely used in building materials, irrigation pipe, the vehicle, bench, furniture, lifts, fences and other fields.
6063 aluminum alloy plate are widely used in building aluminum doors and windows and curtain wall framework, in order to ensure that the doors and windows, curtain walls with high wind resistance performance, assembly performance, corrosion resistance and decorative properties, requirements for the comprehensive performance of aluminum alloy profile is much higher than the industry standard sections.

6063 aluminum alloy plate/coil is an aluminum alloy with magnesium and silicon as the alloying elements. haomei aluminum . delivers customized 6063 aluminum plate,sheet, and coil with excellent properties like weldability, corrosion resistance and machinability. The mechanical properties of 6063 depend greatly on the temper, or heat treatment, of the material. Commonly used tempers are O, H4, H6, H651, F and etc. The All material from haomei aluminum . is fully certified to ASTM, EN, and JIS. Both MSDS and ROHS are available according to your specific demand.

6063 aluminum sheet is an aluminium alloy, with magnesium and silicon as the alloying elements. The standard controlling its composition is maintained by The Aluminum Association. It has generally good mechanical properties and is heat treatable and weldable. It is similar to the British aluminium alloy HE9.

6063 aluminum sheet is the most common alloy used for aluminium extrusion. It allows complex shapes to be formed with very smooth surfaces fit for anodizing and so is popular for visible architectural applications such as window frames, door frames, roofs, and sign frames.[3][4] Applications requiring higher strength typically use 6061 or 6082 instead.
