How We Source & Ensure Quality
we are an independent sourcing and quality partner. Here is how we manage your aluminum tube procurement:
1. Partner mill selection. We maintain a qualified supplier network of aluminum extrusion and drawing mills across Turkey. Each partner is audited for production capability, quality systems, and delivery reliability before contracting.
2. Material coordination. Once you confirm your order, we assign production to the best-fit partner mill based on alloy, size, volume, and delivery timeline. For large or multi-alloy orders, we coordinate across multiple mills under a single purchase order.
3. Independent in-process inspection. Our QA team visits the partner facility during production. We verify extrusion parameters, dimensional conformance, and surface quality before the material proceeds to finishing.
4. Pre-shipment verification. Final inspection covers dimensional checks, visual inspection, weight verification, and document review. Mill Test Certificates (EN 10204 3.1) are cross-checked against order specifications by our engineering team.
5. Documentation and dispatch. We compile the full documentation package — Mill Test Certificate, Certificate of Origin, packing list, commercial invoice — and coordinate loading, customs clearance, and transport to your destination.
All partner mills operate under ISO 9001:2015 quality management systems. For automotive programs, production can be assigned to IATF 16949-certified facilities where required.

Common Questions
What is the difference between aluminum tube and aluminum pipe?
Aluminum tubes are specified by outside diameter (OD) and wall thickness, manufactured to tighter dimensional tolerances, and used primarily in structural, mechanical, and precision applications. Aluminum pipes — including aluminum round pipe — are specified by nominal pipe size (NPS) and schedule number, designed for fluid and gas conveyance under pressure. MetalFromTurkey supplies both formats through our certified partner mills in Turkey.
Which aluminum alloy is best for round tubing?
It depends on the application. 6061-T6 is the best general-purpose structural alloy, offering a strong balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability. 6063-T5 is preferred for architectural work and anodized finishes. 7075-T6 delivers aerospace-grade strength for high-stress, weight-critical components. Contact our engineering team for alloy selection guidance based on your project requirements.
What sizes of aluminum round tubes do you offer?
Our partner mill network produces aluminum round tubes from 6 mm to 508 mm outer diameter, with wall thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 25 mm. Standard lengths include 3 m, 6 m, and 12 m, with custom cutting available. Both metric and imperial dimensions are stocked.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
MOQ for aluminum round tubes starts from 500 kg per alloy/size combination for standard production items. Custom sizes or special alloys may have higher minimums depending on partner mill requirements. Contact us for a tailored quote based on your specific needs.
What are the lead times and delivery terms?
For stock items at partner mills, lead time is 2–3 weeks from order confirmation. Production orders typically require 4–6 weeks. Delivery terms include EXW, FOB (Gemlik/Istanbul port), CFR, and CIF. Transit times vary by destination: EU 10–15 days, Middle East 7–12 days, Central Asia 15–20 days, Americas 20–30 days.
Can you provide custom cutting and fabrication?
