- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability & Weldability
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy containing magnesium and silicon, solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve its 45,000 PSI tensile strength. This process results in a material with high strength, excellent weldability, and superior corrosion resistance. Conforming to ASTM B211, its flat bar form offers a consistent, rectangular profile ideal for a wide range of fabrication and structural applications.
As a medium-sized 1" x 5/8" bar, this product is perfectly suited for applications like structural bracing, equipment mounting plates, machine ways, and wear strips. Its dimensions provide substantial rigidity without excessive weight, making it a reliable choice for custom machine parts and general fabrication.
