- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 is a precipitation-hardened aluminum alloy with magnesium and silicon as its primary alloying elements. This heat-treatable grade offers a versatile combination of high strength, good corrosion resistance, and excellent weldability. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve optimal strength, making it one of the most widely used aluminum alloys for general-purpose structural applications.
This medium-width 3" flat bar provides a stable rectangular cross-section ideal for structural bracing, support members for machinery, wear strips, and base plates. Its consistent dimensions make it easy to drill, tap, mill, and weld for custom fabrication and repair work.
