Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between 6060 and 6063 aluminum?
A: 6060 has slightly tighter chemical composition controls and is often considered a premium version of 6063, offering better surface finish and more consistent mechanical properties.
Q: Can 6060 be anodized?
A: Yes, 6060 anodizes exceptionally well and is commonly used for architectural applications requiring high-quality surface finishes.
Q: What is the T66 temper?
A: T66 is an enhanced temper that provides higher mechanical properties than standard T6, achieved through specialized heat treatment processes.
Q: What is the maximum wall thickness for extrusion?
A: While 6060 Aluminum Alloy can extrude thin walls down to 0.6mm, the practical maximum wall thickness is about 10mm for most applications.
Q: How does 6060 compare to 6061?
A: 6060 has lower strength but better extrudability and surface finish compared to 6061. 6061 is better for structural applications, while 6060 is ideal for architectural extrusions
