Product information
- Surface: bright/raw
- Material: AlMgSi0.5
- Material number: according to EN AW-6060
- Delivery condition: T66 solution annealed and artificially aged
- Manufacturing process: pressed
- Standard: EN 573-3, 755/-1/-2/-8
The sawn edges are unmachined and not deburred. The surface is raw/bright, so scratches etc. cannot be avoided. This is customary in the trade and is no reason for complaint. Nevertheless, we always endeavour to supply all blanks in the best quality.
Product properties:
- low density
- Very good anodising properties
- Very good corrosion resistance
- Smooth surface
- low dimensional tolerances
- good machinability
- cannot be magnetised
- can be decoratively anodised very well
- good weldability and solderability
- suitable for use in the food sector in accordance with EN 602

Powder-coated aluminium square tubes - ideal protection and aesthetics
Powder-coated aluminium square tubes offer a first-class, durable protective coating and a uniform, attractive surface. They are ideal for applications that require high corrosion resistance and a high-quality aesthetic appearance, for example in the construction industry, the automotive industry or for decorative purposes. Thanks to the powder coating, the aluminium square tubes are highly resistant and have an attractive surface quality. Our range includes powder-coated, anodised and bright aluminium square tubes in various sizes and dimensions. We will be happy to advise you on special powder coating requirements or customised dimensions.
Note: The surface quality and colour of our powder-coated aluminium square tubes may vary slightly depending on the production batch. Colour deviations are also possible due to monitor and graphic settings.
Layer formation during powder coating
During powder coating, a high-voltage cascade in the gun body generates a high voltage at the nozzle tip (electrode). An electric field is created between the earthed workpiece and the electrode, which charges the paint particles negatively. These paint particles are distributed finely in a uniform spray cloud by mutual repulsion and are deposited evenly on the aluminium square tubes. Due to the electrical charge, excess powder remains in the field and ensures a comprehensive and even coating. The coating thickness is often thicker at the edges - this so-called picture frame effect is advantageous for corrosion protection, but may require additional post-processing for tight fits.
Powder coating - quality requirements
When testing the quality of powder-coated aluminium square tubes, the coated surface must not show any blisters, craters, pinholes or scratches when viewed with normal eyesight from a distance of 3 metres (for indoor applications) or 5 metres (for outdoor applications). The coating should be free from damage that penetrates the metal. Deviations in the primary material caused by the pressing process do not affect the quality of the powder-coated surface and therefore do not fall within the scope of assessment.
Please note that the ordered product may differ from the product images in terms of the surface finish due to different production batches. The same applies to colours, which are displayed differently depending on the monitor and graphics card.
