Product Details, Specifications, and Technical Information
Aluminum Pipe 6063-T6 Schedule 40 offers exceptional corrosion resistance, light weight, and good formability. 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.
Our pipe is unthreaded to allow for welded connections.
Pipe is designed to carry liquid/gas/material from one place to another, whereas tube is designed to act as structural support.
