Compare 6061 aluminum plate and 6063 aluminum plate

The main alloy elements in the 6 series alloy are magnesium and silicon, with moderate strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability and good oxidation effect. It is widely used in all kinds of industrial structures with certain strength and high corrosion resistance. The main alloy elements of 6061 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, which have medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability and good oxidation effect.

Whether our common seen aluminum alloy shutter door, or can, we use a lot of aluminum as raw materials. Although to average person, aluminium alloy does not have too big distinction, but if you study carefully, you can discover because of the difference of composition and making craft, aluminium alloy is very different actually.

As a commonly used model, the 6061 aluminum plate is not only widely used in daily life, but also plays an important role in industry. The 6063 aluminum plate, similar to the 6061 aluminum plate, is very different because of the difference in aluminum content.

As a result of the 6061 aluminum plate magnesium and silicon content is higher, it has stronger comprehensive performance, corrosion resistance and weldability, so it is often used in the aerospace field. And the processing performance of 6063 aluminum plate is also good, it is more used in some building materials engineering. For a lot of people are not quite clear the characteristic of aluminium alloy, when choose and buy aluminum sheet, they are troubled by  serious price difference. Hope everybody can understand the characteristic of aluminium alloy more.
