- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability & Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy containing magnesium and silicon. This bar is manufactured to meet ASTM B211 standards. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, and good machinability. Its predictable performance makes it a reliable choice for general-purpose fabrication and structural applications.
As a medium-diameter bar, this 9/16" size is highly versatile. It is perfectly suited for manufacturing shafts, axles, spacers, bushings, and other precision machined components where a balance of strength and workability is required for reliable performance in automotive, marine, and industrial equipment.
