6063 is a heat-treatable aluminum magnesium silicon alloy best known for architectural extrusions, smooth surface finish and attractive anodizing response. It offers good corrosion resistance and weldability but lower strength than common structural plate alloys such as 6061 and 6082. Although flat products may be offered by specialist suppliers, rolled plate availability and certification require specific confirmation. Extruded flat bar sold as plate must be identified correctly because its product standard and mechanical requirements differ from rolled plate.
Chemical composition
| Element | Limit in wt percent |
| Silicon Si | 0.20–0.60 |
| Iron Fe | ≤0.35 |
| Copper Cu | ≤0.10 |
| Manganese Mn | ≤0.10 |
| Magnesium Mg | 0.45–0.90 |
| Chromium Cr | ≤0.10 |
| Zinc Zn | ≤0.10 |
| Titanium Ti | ≤0.10 |
| Other elements each | ≤0.05 |
| Other elements total | ≤0.15 |
| Aluminum Al | Balance |
Mechanical properties by temper
| Temper | Condition or thickness | Rm MPa | Rp0.2 MPa | Elongation % | Basis |
| O | Annealed | 90 | 50 | N/V | Typical tube/pipe [5] |
| T4 | Natural aging | 170 | 90 | 22 | Typical tube/pipe [5] |
| T5 | Aged after shaping | 185 | 145 | 12 | Typical tube/pipe [5] |
| T6 | Solution treated and aged | 240 | 215 | 12 | Typical tube/pipe [5] |
Application fields
- Architectural and decorative components requiring a good anodized finish.
- Lightweight covers, trims and noncritical flat components when certified flat stock is available.
- Heat dissipation components and electrical equipment parts.
- Window, door and curtain wall profiles, plus air cylinder tubing; these are predominantly extruded or tubular applications rather than rolled plate.
