- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability & Weldability
6061-T6 aluminum is a versatile, precipitation-hardened alloy that has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve its high strength-to-weight ratio. Conforming to ASTM B211, it is one of the most widely used aluminum alloys, offering an excellent combination of strength, good workability, and superior resistance to corrosion. Its characteristics make it easy to weld and machine into complex parts.
As a large-diameter bar, this 2-1/4" round is perfectly suited for manufacturing robust components. Common applications include heavy-duty shafts for industrial machinery, large custom fittings, structural supports, and forging stock for creating high-strength custom parts where material integrity and performance are essential.
