- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy with magnesium and silicon as its primary alloying elements. This heat-treatable grade conforms to ASTM B211 and offers a versatile combination of high strength (45,000 PSI tensile), good corrosion resistance, and excellent weldability. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve optimal strength properties.
As a medium-sized flat bar, this 2" width is a fundamental building block for projects requiring strong, lightweight components. It is commonly used for structural bracing, support brackets, machine ways and guards, mounting blocks, and base plates in fabrication, automotive, and industrial applications.
