Description

Aluminium Tube (1 Metre Length) is a lightweight and durable option for use in automotive, motorsport, and industrial applications requiring strong, corrosion-resistant pipework. Manufactured from high-grade T6063 aluminium, the tubing combines strength and machinability with a smooth finish, making it ideal for custom fabrication and performance upgrades. Supplied in 1 metre straight sections, aluminium tube is suitable for coolant, intake, intercooler, and general fluid or air transfer systems where silicone or rubber hoses need to be joined securely. Its solid-wall construction provides long service life under pressure and vibration while offering significant weight savings compared to steel alternatives.

Key Features:

  • Material: T6063 aluminium for strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight performance.

  • Length Supplied: 1 metre straight tube.

  • Construction: Precision-extruded aluminium with smooth bore and polished finish.

  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to +220°C (peak +240°C).

  • Compatibility: Designed for use with silicone and rubber hoses secured with clamps.

  • Applications: Coolant, intercooler, turbo intake, breather, and custom pipework.

  • Standard: Manufactured to T6063 specification.

Made from premium T6063 aluminium, the tube offers excellent corrosion resistance while maintaining strength and dimensional stability under load. Its lightweight construction makes it especially suited to motorsport and performance vehicles where reducing system weight is essential. The smooth internal bore promotes efficient fluid or air transfer, while the polished exterior enhances both durability and appearance. Easy to cut, weld, or machine, aluminium tube provides flexibility for bespoke fabrication and repair work.

Applications include custom intercooler and turbocharger systems, coolant plumbing, induction setups, breather lines, and other high-performance or industrial installations requiring rigid, lightweight pipework. Aluminium tube is widely used in motorsport, custom builds, and industrial engineering projects where a strong yet lightweight tubing solution is required.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

What grade is the aluminium?

Our aluminum is of grade T6063. T6063 is an aluminum alloy known for its excellent extrudability, formability, and corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in various applications, including architectural and structural components, due to its favorable combination of strength and workability. T6063 is widely recognized for its anodizing and finishing capabilities, making it a versatile choice for a range of industries.

Can alloy be welded?

Yes, T6063 is weldable. It belongs to the 6xxx series of aluminum alloys, which are known for their good weldability. T6063, in particular, responds well to various welding techniques, including TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas), MIG (Metal Inert Gas), and even oxyacetylene welding.

why is the aluminium beaded?

The swaging process allows for precise shaping and sizing of metal components, ensuring a tight and secure fit with hoses. This enhanced connection not only improves overall durability and reliability but also minimizes the risk of leaks or failures in comparison to non-swaged connections.

The improved mechanical properties achieved through swaging contribute to the alloy's strength and resilience, making it well-suited for applications where hoses are subjected to challenging conditions, such as high pressure or temperature variations. The result is a more robust and long-lasting hose assembly, often preferred in industries where reliable fluid conveyance is critical.

does stainless steel rust?

Stainless steel will rust under certain conditions. Stainless steel has the ability to resist atmospheric oxidation---that is, non-rust, and it also has the ability to corrode in media containing acid, alkali, and salt---that is, corrosion resistance.
