The reason why the cylinder is made of 6063-T832 is that the pressure of the pneumatic transmission is relatively low, generally not higher than 0.8MPa, and the aluminum alloy cylinder is sufficient to bear the pressure. The hydraulic transmission pressure can reach 32MPa or even higher, and the strength of the aluminum alloy material cannot withstand it, so the main parts of the hydraulic cylinder are made of steel.

6063-T832 aluminum air cylinder extrusion tubes Working principle: Determine the thrust and pull force on the piston rod according to the force required for the work. Therefore, when selecting the aluminum cylinder tube, the output force of the cylinder should be slightly marginal. If the cylinder diameter is selected smaller, the output force is not enough, and the cylinder cannot work normally; but the cylinder diameter is too large, not only makes the equipment bulky and costly, but also increases the gas consumption, resulting in energy waste. When designing the fixture, a force-increasing mechanism should be used as much as possible to reduce the size of the cylinder.


6063 is the most common alloy used in aluminum air cylinder extrusion tubes. It allows the formation of complex shapes, has a very smooth surface, and is suitable for anodizing
Mechanical behavior
The mechanical properties of 6063 largely depend on the tempering or heat treatment of the material.
