Aluminium 6063 mainly consists of aluminum (the balance) with magnesium (0.45–0.9%) and silicon (0.2–0.6%) as its primary alloying elements, along with small amounts of iron, copper, manganese, and zinc. It boasts moderate tensile strength ranging from 160 to 280 MPa, yield strength of about 110 to 250 MPa, and elongation between 8 to 17%, depending on the temper. Known for its impressive corrosion resistance, good weldability, and high machinability, Aluminium 6063 is a versatile alloy that’s perfect for forging applications requiring lightweight yet durable components.
