Determine if aluminum is the right material for you and which alloys will work best.
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.
These sheets and bars are precision ground either on all six sides or just on the top and bottom.
An anodized coating bonds to the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
The thickness is oversized to allow for finishing to exact requirements.
One side of these sheets and bars is polished to either a brushed finish or a mirror-like finish.
Polished on the outside to a #8 reflective, mirror-like finish, these tubes have no visible grain lines.
An anodized coating forms a bond to the inside, outside, and ends of these tubes to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
The outside of these 90° angles is polished to either a brushed finish or a mirror-like finish.
An anodized coating forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
Weld these aluminum triangles to reinforce joints in structural applications.
Also known as American Standard I-Beams, these I-beams have rounded corners.
A hard-anodized coating forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
The matte plating on these rods, sometimes called industrial chrome and hard chrome, creates a slippery surface that minimizes galling and prevents parts from seizing.
Choose between rods that are polished to a brushed finish or a mirror-like finish.
These rods and discs are precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 6061 rods and discs.
More corrosion resistant and easier to form than multipurpose 6061 aluminum, 6063 is primarily used for exterior railings, decorative trim, and door frames.
The anodized coating on these 90° angles forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
An anodized coating on these U-channels forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
The outside of these tubes is anodized to improve wear and corrosion resistance.
Sized to fit into the next larger size, use these tubes to create telescoping railings and frames.
Easier to bend and shape than 6061 aluminum, this aluminum is good for framing, cross sections, and structures in construction and marine industries.
Often used in structural applications to reinforce joints, these 6005 aluminum triangular tubes are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and easier to machine and form than 6061 aluminum.
Frequently used to make valve bodies, pistons, and hydraulic parts, 6020 aluminum is easier to machine and more corrosion resistant than 6061, but it is not as weldable.
6101 aluminum is chiefly used as a lightweight and economical alternative to copper in electrical applications, such as bus bars in switchboards and battery banks.
As the strongest multipurpose aluminum we offer, 6013 aluminum has the same good corrosion resistance, weldability, and machinability as 6061 with increased strength. 6013 is often fabricated into high-stress machine parts.
While 2024 aluminum was initially designed for structural components in aircraft, it's now widely used when a high strength-to-weight ratio is needed, such as for gears, shafts, and fasteners. It offers similar performance to 7075 aluminum, but it’s not as strong.
These rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, so they’re ready for turning in a lathe.
Also known as flat stock, these sheets and bars are precision ground on the top and bottom.
These sheets are clad in 1230 aluminum for an added layer of corrosion resistance.

Substitute 7050 aluminum for 7075 in structural applications when high stress-corrosion resistance is required. It is the same material that's used for bulkheads and fuselage frames.
2011 has the best machinability of all the aluminum alloys. It is the most selected aluminum for screws, tube fittings, hose parts, and other items that require extensive machining.
Designed for use as a production injection mold and blow mold, tk Ultra 7 is extremely strong with a hard surface and excellent thermal conductivity. It’s comparable to QC-10 aluminum.
Precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance, these rods are ready for turning in a lathe.
Lighter in weight than steel and stronger than plastic, these aluminum balls are widely used as bearings and in valves.
Known for being one of the easiest types of aluminum to weld, 5052 is also recognized for its ability to resist salt water. It's widely used for the bodies of boats, buses, trucks, and trailers, as well as for chemical drums.
No need to prepare this material before machining parts in dovetail vises—the dovetails and locating slots are already cut in.
