Alloy

 
6063 Most economical. Excellent extrudability. Good corrosion resistance, surface finishing response, machinability, formability and weldability.
6463 Produces a bright, mirror-like, high quality surface finish, good machinability and formability.
6005 Excellent extrudability and strength, low impact resistance, good surface finishing response, machinability, formability, and weldability.
6061 Excellent strength, corrosion resistance and machinabilty, poor surface finishing response, good formability and weldability.
6050 Excellent strength, stronger than 6063, with better surface finish response than 6061.
