The 6000 alloys boast of moderately high strength and resistance to corrosion. They are heat treatable and readily welded. Their extrudability is one of the unique features that make them the first choice for structural and architectural projects where strength is of utmost importance. Among the alloys in the 6000 series, the heat-treatable aluminum-magnesium-silicon 6063 allow is highly sought-after and one of the most widely used. As a matter of fact, 6063 aluminum is the choicest alloy for the members…
