1. What Is an Aluminum Profile Grade?
The term aluminum profile grade is commonly used to describe the aluminum alloy used to manufacture an extrusion profile.
Aluminum alloys are produced by adding controlled amounts of elements such as:
- Silicon (Si)
- Magnesium (Mg)
- Manganese (Mn)
- Copper (Cu)
- Zinc (Zn)
These alloying elements change the mechanical, physical, corrosion, and processing characteristics of aluminum.
The Aluminum Association designation system divides wrought aluminum alloys into several major series according to their principal alloying elements.
| Alloy Series | Main Alloying Element | General Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| 1xxx | Aluminum | High purity, excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance |
| 2xxx | Copper | High strength, heat treatable |
| 3xxx | Manganese | Good formability and corrosion resistance |
| 4xxx | Silicon | Lower melting point, commonly used in welding-related applications |
| 5xxx | Magnesium | Excellent corrosion resistance and weldability |
| 6xxx | Magnesium + Silicon | Good strength, extrudability and corrosion resistance |
| 7xxx | Zinc | Very high strength |
| 8xxx | Other elements | Specialized applications |
For aluminum extrusion profiles, the 6xxx series is particularly important because it offers a practical combination of strength, extrudability, corrosion resistance, weldability, machinability, and surface quality.
2. Understanding Aluminum Alloy Designations
A four-digit number such as 6063, 6061, 6005A, or 6082 identifies an aluminum alloy.
However, the alloy number does not tell you everything about the final mechanical properties.
For example:
- 6063 = aluminum alloy
- 6063-T5 = aluminum alloy + temper
- 6063-T6 = aluminum alloy + different temper
Therefore, 6063-T5 and 6063-T6 have the same basic alloy family but different material conditions and mechanical properties.
When purchasing aluminum extrusion profiles, it is important to specify the complete material designation rather than simply asking for “6063 aluminum.”
A typical technical specification may include:
Alloy + Temper + Standard + Dimensions + Tolerances + Surface Treatment
This approach helps reduce misunderstandings between aluminum extrusion manufacturers and buyers.
3. Aluminum Alloy vs. Temper: What’s the Difference?
One of the most important concepts in aluminum profile selection is the difference between alloy and temper.
The alloy describes the chemical composition of the aluminum.
The temper describes the material condition after processing, including heat treatment, cooling, aging, or other treatments.
For example:
6061-T6
- 6061 = aluminum alloy
- T6 = temper condition
6063-T5
- 6063 = aluminum alloy
- T5 = temper condition
The same alloy can therefore be supplied in different tempers, resulting in different mechanical properties.
For aluminum extrusion buyers, this distinction is critical when comparing strength, hardness, machinability, and structural performance.
What Does T5 Mean in Aluminum?
T5 is a temper designation commonly encountered in extruded aluminum profiles.
It generally indicates that the product has been cooled from an elevated-temperature shaping process and artificially aged.
T5 is widely used for architectural and general-purpose extrusion applications.
What Does T6 Mean in Aluminum?
T6 is generally associated with solution heat treatment followed by artificial aging.
For many heat-treatable aluminum alloys, T6 can provide higher mechanical properties than T5.
However, the exact properties depend on the specific alloy, product dimensions, and applicable material standard.
T6 should not automatically be considered “better” than T5.
The correct temper depends on the actual application and engineering requirements.
4. Major Aluminum Alloy Series
Before comparing specific aluminum extrusion grades, it is useful to understand the major alloy families.
1xxx Series
The 1xxx series contains very high-purity aluminum.
Typical characteristics include:
- Excellent electrical conductivity
- Excellent thermal conductivity
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- High ductility
- Relatively low strength
These alloys are more commonly associated with electrical, thermal, and chemical applications than structural extrusion profiles.
3xxx Series
Manganese is the primary alloying element.

6060, 6063, 6061, 6005A, and 6082.
These are among the most relevant aluminum profile grades for architectural, industrial, structural, and custom extrusion applications.
7xxx Series
Zinc is the primary alloying element.
7xxx alloys can achieve very high strength and are associated with demanding applications.
However, the highest-strength alloy is not automatically the best choice for an aluminum extrusion.
Extrudability, corrosion resistance, weldability, surface finish, cost, and application requirements must also be considered.
5. 6063 Aluminum
6063 is one of the most widely used aluminum alloys for architectural aluminum extrusion profiles.

6063-T5
6063-T5 is commonly used for:
- Architectural profiles
- Window and door systems
- Decorative extrusions
- General-purpose aluminum profiles
It provides a practical balance of mechanical performance, extrusion capability, and surface quality.
6063-T6
6063-T6 may be selected where higher mechanical performance is required.
However, the appropriate temper should be selected according to:
- Required strength
- Profile dimensions
- Profile geometry
- Applicable standard
- Application
- Manufacturing process
Therefore, 6063-T6 is not automatically the correct choice simply because it can provide higher strength.
For a custom extrusion project, the material specification should be evaluated together with the profile design.
7. 6060 Aluminum
6060 is another popular 6xxx series alloy for aluminum extrusion.
It is especially suitable for complex extrusion geometries and applications where surface appearance is important.
Typical characteristics

Each alloy provides a different balance of properties.
| Alloy | Relative Strength | Extrudability | Surface Quality | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6060 | Moderate | Excellent | Excellent | Architectural, decorative |
| 6063 | Moderate | Excellent | Excellent | Windows, doors, architectural |
| 6061 | High | Good | Good | Structural, machining, industrial |
| 6005A | Medium-High | Very Good | Very Good | Structural, transportation |

14. What Factors Affect Aluminum Profile Performance?
Aluminum alloy is only one part of the equation.
The final performance of an aluminum extrusion depends on several factors.
14.1 Alloy
The alloy determines the basic chemical and mechanical characteristics of the material.
Different alloys offer different balances of:
- Strength
- Corrosion resistance
- Extrudability
- Weldability
- Machinability
- Surface quality
14.2 Temper
The temper affects the material’s mechanical properties.
For example, T5 and T6 conditions can provide different performance levels for the same basic alloy.
Therefore, specifications such as 6063-T5 and 6063-T6 should be treated as different material conditions.
14.3 Profile Geometry
Cross-sectional geometry can have a major effect on stiffness and load capacity.
Important design factors include:
- Wall thickness
- Cross-sectional area
- Hollow sections
- Ribs
- Corners
- Moment of inertia
- Connection points
A well-designed extrusion can achieve high structural efficiency without simply increasing material thickness.
14.4 Manufacturing Quality
Extrusion temperature, die design, extrusion speed, cooling, aging, straightening, cutting, and dimensional control can all influence the final product.
This is why the extrusion supplier’s manufacturing capability is an important consideration alongside alloy selection.
14.5 Surface Treatment
Anodizing, powder coating, PVDF, electrophoresis, wood-grain finishing, and other treatments affect:
- Appearance
- Corrosion resistance
- Weather resistance
- Wear resistance
- Long-term durability
15. Aluminum Profile Surface Treatments
Selecting the right alloy is only the first step.
The surface treatment should also match the final application.
Anodized Aluminum Profiles

17. Aluminum Profile Standards
When purchasing aluminum extrusion profiles internationally, it is important to specify the applicable material standard.
A typical technical specification may include:
Alloy + Temper + Standard + Dimensions + Tolerances + Surface Finish + Inspection Requirements
For example:
EN AW-6063 T5 aluminum extrusion profile
or:
EN AW-6082 T6 structural aluminum extrusion
However, the complete specification should also define dimensional tolerances, surface requirements, and other project-specific requirements.
EN 755-2 specifies mechanical property requirements for extruded aluminum rod, bar, tube, and profiles according to factors such as alloy, temper, and dimensions.
The Aluminum Association also maintains alloy and temper designation systems for aluminum products.
For international projects, buyers should confirm the exact standard required by the end application and destination market.
