Overview|Specifications|Applications|Finish Options|How to Measure|Order Checklist

6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy with magnesium and silicon, known for its high strength-to-weight ratio. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve optimal strength. It conforms to ASTM B211 and is one of the most widely used aluminum grades for general fabrication and structural work.

As a medium-sized bar, this 1" wide profile is ideal for structural bracing, support brackets, machine ways, and general fabrication. Its flat, uniform surfaces are easy to drill, tap, and machine, providing a stable foundation for custom components in machinery, automotive, and architectural projects.
