- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 is a precipitation-hardened aluminum alloy containing magnesium and silicon, providing excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. It is one of the most common alloys for general-purpose use. This square bar form, produced to ASTM B211 standards, has sharp corners and precise dimensions, making it a reliable choice for applications requiring strength, good workability, and weldability.
As a small-profile bar, this 1/4" square is perfectly suited for manufacturing lightweight brackets, mounting fixtures, gussets, and jigs. Its dimensional stability and ease of machining also make it a top choice for producing small, custom-machined parts and structural spacers in machinery and electronics assemblies.
