6063 ALUMINUM PIPE
6063 ALUMINUM PIPE
6063 aluminum pipe is made from a popular heat treatable magnesium/silicon alloy. This alloy has excellent corrosion resistance and weldability. Due to its finer grain structure, this is an excellent alloy choice for anodizing. Applications include air cylinder, electrical bus conductor and architectural.
