- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Machinability
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy containing magnesium and silicon, making it one of the most widely used aluminum grades. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve its optimal strength properties. This process results in a material that provides high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and good machinability, conforming to ASTM B211 standards.
As a medium-width bar, this 1-1/2" size is a fundamental building block for structural projects. It is frequently used for structural bracing, support brackets, machine ways, and wear strips where a balance of strength, light weight, and dimensional accuracy is required for reliable performance.
