There is nothing special about 6060 aluminum alloy. It is the most common material for all kind of aluminum parts. It is not expensive and very easy to machine. Modern CNC machines with carbide cutting tools cut this material like butter. 6060 has many heat treat variations. You can heat treat aluminum alloy to achieve certain mechanical properties and strength. Again T6 heat treat is very common and no brainer.
Magico is made out of 6060-T6 aluminum alloy.
Years ago when mechanical engineers design machines they will use cast iron for machine bases. Cast iron with graphite was resistant to vibrations. Another vibrations resistant materials are lead and asphalt and many more. Why Magico is made out of aluminum? Probably because it is cheap, easy to precisely machine, and process for example hard anodize.
