Aluminum Architectural Channel 6063-T52 has excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, and light weight. 6063 is more easily formable and much more corrosion resistant than 6061, but it is only about half as strong. 6063-T52 is typically used in applications where corrosion resistance and aesthetic are more important than strength, such as piping, furniture, and decorative applications.

This aluminum channel measures 3 inches in base width, with legs of 1 inch by 1 inch and a thickness of 0.125 inches. It is made from 6063 alloy aluminum, tempered to T52, and produced by extrusion, offering excellent corrosion resistance and good formability.

The 6063-T52 aluminum channel is ideal for applications where corrosion resistance and aesthetics are prioritized over strength, such as piping, furniture, and decorative architectural uses. It has about half the strength of 6061 alloy but superior formability and corrosion resistance.

Yes, custom cut lengths are available from the warehouse, with a maximum length of 192 inches. Multiple length options are in stock, ranging from 12 inches up to 192 inches.

Yes, material test reports (MTR) are available for this product. It also complies with RoHS and REACH environmental standards, ensuring it meets regulatory requirements.

Shipping weight varies by length, starting at 0.72 lb for 12 inches and up to 11.52 lb for 192 inches. Prices range from $12.35 for the shortest length to $143.80 for the longest.
