6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy with magnesium and silicon, known for its versatile mechanical properties. This flat bar is produced to meet ASTM B211 standards, offering a combination of high strength, good machinability, and excellent corrosion resistance. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve optimal strength.

With its substantial 6-inch width and 1/2-inch thickness, this large flat bar is ideal for heavy-duty applications. It serves as a robust foundation for base plates, structural framing members, mounting blocks for heavy equipment, and components for jigs and fixtures requiring dimensional stability.

Specifications

  • Material: 6061-T6 Aluminum
  • Standards: ASTM B211
  • Strength/Tensile: 45,000 PSI
  • Dimensions: 6" Width x 1/2" Thickness x 144" Length
  • Finish: T6 Temper, Mill Finish
  • Certifications: MTR Available

Applications

  • Structural Framing: Support members and chassis - high strength-to-weight ratio suitable for large frames.
  • Machined Parts: Large mounting plates and base plates - good machinability and dimensional stability for heavy equipment.
  • Transportation: Trailer frames and bus components - strong and lightweight for building robust vehicle structures.
  • General Fabrication: Gussets and base plates for industrial equipment - easy to weld and machine for custom structural reinforcement.

Target Users

Machinists, fabricators, and structural engineers rely on 6061-T6 Aluminum Flat Bar for its strength and versatility in industrial and transportation applications throughout the Los Angeles area.
