6061 Aluminum Tube for Hydraulic Cylinder 2mm to 6mm Wall Custom Length
Product Spotlights
Hemaokang Steel (Shandong) Co., Ltd. is proud to offer our premium 6061 Aluminum Tube for Hydraulic Cylinder, designed with wall thickness options from 2mm to 6mm and fully customizable lengths to meet your exact requirements. As a dedicated manufacturer with over 50 employees and an annual export value exceeding US$50 million, we deliver high-quality aluminum tubing that combines strength, lightweight properties, and corrosion resistance. Our 6061 alloy tubes are ideal for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder applications, providing reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
Whether you need a standard size or a custom dimension, our tubes are manufactured with precision to ensure consistent wall thickness, excellent straightness, and smooth inner surfaces. The material is solution heat-treated and artificially aged (T6 temper) to achieve superior mechanical properties. With our ISO9001-certified quality management system, you can trust every tube to meet strict international standards.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: 6061 aluminum offers excellent tensile strength (up to 310 MPa) while being one-third the weight of steel, reducing overall cylinder weight and improving fuel efficiency in mobile equipment.
- Corrosion Resistance: Natural oxide layer protects against rust and chemical attack, extending service life in hydraulic systems exposed to moisture or aggressive fluids.
- Precision Wall Thickness: Available from 2mm to 6mm with tight tolerances (±0.1mm), ensuring consistent performance and minimizing material waste during machining.
- Custom Length: We cut tubes to your specified length (from 100mm to 12,000mm) with square ends, ready for final assembly or further processing.
- Excellent Machinability: 6061 alloy is easy to weld, drill, tap, and thread, allowing you to create complex cylinder components with ease.
- Versatile Surface Options: Choose from mill finish, anodized (clear or colored), or polished finish to match your aesthetic or functional needs.
