- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability & Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy that has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged for maximum strength. This process results in a material with an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, superior corrosion resistance, and good workability. Conforming to ASTM B211, it is one of the most widely used aluminum alloys for general-purpose structural and machining projects.
As a large-diameter bar, this 2-5/16" size is perfectly suited for heavy-duty applications. It is frequently used for manufacturing robust shafts, large rollers, forging stock for custom parts, and substantial machined components that require both strength and dimensional stability under load.
