Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Sheets and Bars
The most widely used aluminum, 6061 is fabricated into everything from pipe fittings and containers to automotive and aerospace parts. It is strong and corrosion resistant, plus it's easy to machine and weld.
Extruded sheets and bars are formed by a die for close-tolerance widths, then cut to the lengths listed.
Aluminum that meets ASTM B209 or ASTM B221 complies with standards for materials.
Aluminum that meets an SAE AMS standard conforms to the material and process needs of the aerospace industry.

Anodized Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Sheets and Bars
- Yield Strength: 35,000 psi
- Hardness: Not Rated
- Temper: See table
- Fabrication: Extruded
- Specifications Met: See table
An anodized coating bonds to the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance. The most widely used aluminum, 6061 is fabricated into everything from pipe fittings and containers to automotive and aerospace parts. It is strong and corrosion resistant, plus it's easy to machine and weld.
Clear and black finishes are also known as decorative anodize. The finish is uniform and readily accepts paint and adhesive.
