Mastars is an enterprise that designs, develops and produces precision plastic parts. The products are involved in automobile, communication electronics, medical and personal care, medical consumables, smart home, semiconductor, new energy and other fields, focusing on the development of smart medicine, artificial intelligence, IOT and other fields, to provide customers with customized manufacturing services for high-precision plastic parts.


The chemical composition and processing performance of 6060 and 6063 aluminum alloy are similar, but not exactly the same. The difference between the two is the strength, 6060 is the national standard aluminum alloy for doors and windows, while 6063 is the national license to use aviation aluminum alloy.

6060 aluminum material
Product characteristics: 1. high strength heat treatable alloy 2. good mechanical properties 3. good usability 4. easy to add beauty good wear resistance 5. corrosion resistance, good oxidation resistance
Main uses 
Aviation fixtures, truck towers, boats, pipelines and other areas that require strength, weldability and corrosion resistance for construction applications. Such as aircraft parts, camera lenses, couplers, marine fittings and hardware, electronic fittings and joints, decorative or various hardware, hinge heads, magnetic heads, brake pistons, water pistons, electrical fittings, valves and valve parts. 

6063 Aluminum Alloy
Physical properties and mechanical properties 
Tensile strength b(MPa):≥205 condition yield strength 0.2(MPa):≥170 elongation 55(%):≥96063 aluminum plate

Product characteristics use introduction. 
Wide range of use especially in the construction industry can not be separated from this alloy, is the most promising alloy good corrosion resistance, excellent weldability, good cold workability, and has a medium strength. 

The main alloy elements are magnesium and silicon, with excellent processing performance, excellent weldability, extrudability and plating, good corrosion resistance, toughness, easy to polish, color film, excellent anodic oxidation effect, is a typical extrusion alloy. 6063 aluminum alloy profiles are widely used in construction profiles, irrigation pipes, etc. with its good plasticity, moderate heat treatment strength, good welding performance and gorgeous color after anodic oxidation. It is widely used in construction profiles, irrigation pipes, tubes, bars and profiles for vehicles, pedestals, furniture, lifts, fences, etc.
