6061-T6 Aluminum Flat Bar - 6" x 3/8" x 144"
This 6" x 3/8" 6061-T6 Aluminum Flat Bar offers an outstanding combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability. Conforming to ASTM B211, its high strength-to-weight ratio makes it ideal for structural framing, base plates, and machined parts. In stock Los Angeles.
- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 aluminum is a heat-treatable alloy with magnesium and silicon as its primary alloying elements, delivering good mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to its peak strength. This grade is easily welded and machined, making it one of the most versatile aluminum alloys for fabrication and structural work.
As a large-format flat bar, this 6-inch wide by 3/8-inch thick stock is ideal for applications requiring a broad, stable surface and significant structural integrity. It is commonly used for heavy-duty base plates, support brackets for machinery, jigs and fixtures, and structural components in transportation and industrial equipment.
