Determine if aluminum is the right material for you and which alloys will work best.
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.
If you don’t see the sheet or bar size you need, please specify dimensions under additional sheet sizes or additional bar lengths.

Easy-to-Machine MIC6 Cast Aluminum Sheets and Bars
- Yield Strength: 15,000 psi
- Hardness: Brinell 65 (Soft)
- Temper: Not Rated
- Fabrication: Cast
MIC6 is cast from a high-strength 7000-series aluminum, then stress relieved to maintain dimensional stability during high-speed machining. Use these sheets and bars for CNC routing tables, assembly jigs, vacuum chucks, and other applications where consistent flatness and tight tolerances are critical.

Easy-to-Machine Cast Aluminum for Tool and Jig Plates
Made of 5083 aluminum, these cast tool and jig plates are more corrosion resistant and respond better to anodizing than MIC6. This material is comparable to Alca 5 and ATP 5. Use for CNC routing tables, assembly jigs, vacuum chucks, and other applications where consistent flatness and tight tolerances are critical.
