Due to its finer grain structure, it provides outstanding anodizing results, making it ideal for architectural and decorative applications, often referred to as "architectural aluminum."
It is also widely used in cylinders, aluminum bus bars, transportation, and furniture decoration.

What are the characteristics of 6063 aluminum tubing?
6063 is one of the most suitable materials for extrusion in the 6000 series, widely used in architectural decoration, earning it the nickname "architectural aluminum." Its strength is about half that of 6061, but it has much better surface smoothness and excellent anodizing performance. Key characteristics include:
- Medium strength
- Excellent surface quality
- Good corrosion resistance
- Good formability
- Superior anodizing performance
- Excellent finishing capabilities
- Good weldability

Why is 6063 aluminum tubing suitable for use as bus pipe?
6063 aluminum buspipe have excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for power transmission and distribution systems. They ensure efficient current transmission and require no additional maintenance over long-term use.
What are the differences between 6061 and 6063 aluminum tubes?
6061 and 6063 are two of the most widely used aluminum tubes. Their chemical composition and mechanical properties are very similar, but the magnesium content differs, leading to variations in strength:
Features | 6061 | 6063 |
Tensile strength | Medium to high strength | Medium strength |
Mechanical properties | Excellent | Good |
Corrosion resistance | Good | Excellent |
Electrical properties | Low | High |
Thermal conductivity | Medium | High |
Processing properties | Good | Good |
Surface finish | General | Excellent |
Application range | Aerospace, automotive, construction | Architectural decoration, door and window frames, furniture |
- 6061 aluminum tubing is one of the most commonly used aluminum alloys due to its versatility and excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It has a low melting point, high strength, and good weldability, commonly available in T4 and T6 tempers. However, its corrosion resistance and surface finish are not as good as those of 6063 aluminum tubes.
- 6063 aluminum tubing is known for its excellent surface finish and superior corrosion resistance. It can also be extruded at high speeds to produce thin-walled tubes, with exceptional results after anodizing. However, its strength is about half that of 6061, making it more suitable for architectural and decorative applications. Additionally, 6063 is more cost-effective than 6061, making it the best choice for non-structural appearance parts.
Mastar Metal also offers a wide range of other high-performance aluminum tubes, such as 2024 aluminum tubes, 7075 aluminum tubes, and 6082 aluminum tubes. If you need more information, feel free to contact us.Quick Quote
