    The document is a performance test report for Asteknik Aluminum Alloy 6063 - T5 for Extrusions. It summarizes that tensile properties tests were conducted according to ASTM standards on 6 specimens cut from aluminum extrusion samples. The average results for tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation met the minimum property requirements for Alloy 6063 T5 per another ASTM standard. Photos in an appendix showed the tension test set-up and specimen failure mode.

    Product: Asteknik Aluminum Alloy 6063 - T5 for Extrusions

    Project Summary: Architectural Testing, Inc., an Intertek company ("Intertek-ATI"), was


    contracted by Asteknik Muhendislik Yapi ve Yalitim Malz. Alum. ve Plastik San. Tic. Ltd. Sti. to
    evaluate the tensile properties of their Asteknik Aluminum Alloy 6063 - T5 for Extrusions. The
    product description, test procedure, and test results are reported herein.

    Test Methods: The test specimens were evaluated in accordance with the following methods.

    ASTM B221-14, Standard Specification for Aluminum and Aluminum-Alloy Extruded Bars,
    Rods, Wire, Profiles, and Tubes

    ASTM B557-15, Standard Test Methods for Tension Testing Wrought and Cast Aluminum-
    and Magnesium-Alloy Products

    ASTM E8/E8M-16a, Standard Test Methods for Tension Testing of Metallic Materials

    Product Description: The Asteknik Aluminum Alloy 6063 - T5 for Extrusions material was
    submitted to Intertek-ATI by Asteknik Muhendislik Yapi ve Yalitim Malz. Alum. ve Plastik San. Tic.
    Ltd. Sti. and consisted of six sections of aluminum extrusion measuring 2 in. x 16 in. x product
    thickness. The material was received on April 17, 2017 and was tested as received with the
    exception of machining the smaller test specimens from the pieces.

    Test Procedure and Test Results: The testing procedure and results obtained from testing are
    reported as follows. All conditioning of test specimens and test conditions were at standard
    laboratory conditions unless otherwise reported. Refer to the test related photos in Appendix A.

    ASTM B557 / ASTM E8 - Tensile Properties


    Six specimens were prepared in accordance with ASTM B557, Section 6.2.1 and ASTM E8, Section
    6.3 for standard sheet-type specimens and marked with and initial gage length of 2.00 in. Each
    specimen was secured between two clamps on an Instron Universal Test Machine (ICN: 005740)
    equipped with a Class C extensometer (ICN: 63959) and loaded at a rate of 0.20 in/min until
    failure was achieved. Tensile Strength and Yield Strength were tested and calculated in English
    units and converted metric units.

    Conclusion: Per ASTM B221 Table 2, an Alloy 6063 with a T5 temper and a wall thickness up
    through 0.5000 in. shall have a minimum tensile strength of 22.0 ksi, a minimum yield strength
    at 0.2 offset of 16.0 ksi, and a minimum elongation of 8%. The average results for the Asteknik
    Aluminum Alloy 6063 - T5 for Extrusions material meets these requirements.
