- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability & Corrosion Resistance
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy with magnesium and silicon as its main alloying elements. The T6 temper indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve its optimal strength-to-weight ratio. This process provides a tensile strength of 45,000 PSI, excellent corrosion resistance, and superior weldability, making it one of the most versatile aluminum alloys available.
As a medium-diameter 1/2" bar, this material is perfectly suited for general-purpose shafts, axles, custom hardware, spacers, and various machined components for automotive, marine, and aerospace applications where reliable performance and good surface finish are required.
