Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum

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.

Tight-Tolerance Multipurpose
6061 Aluminum Sheets and Bars

These sheets and bars are precision ground either on all six sides or just on the top and bottom.

Anodized Multipurpose 6061
Aluminum Sheets and Bars

An anodized coating bonds to the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

Polished Multipurpose 6061
Aluminum Sheets and Bars

One side of these sheets and bars is polished to either a brushed finish or a mirror-like finish.

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Rods and Discs

Tight-Tolerance Multipurpose
6061 Aluminum Rods and Discs

These rods and discs are precision ground to offer tighter tolerances than standard 6061 rods and discs.

Anodized Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Rods

An anodized coating forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

Chrome-Plated Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Rods

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.

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum 90° Angles

Anodized Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum 90° Angles

An anodized coating forms a bond with the aluminum surface to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

Polished Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum 90° Angles

The outside of these 90° angles is polished to either a brushed finish or a mirror-like finish.

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Round Tubes

Polished Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Round Tubes

Polished on the outside to a #8 reflective, mirror-like finish, these tubes have no visible grain lines.

Anodized Multipurpose 6061
Aluminum Round Tubes

An anodized coating forms a bond to the inside, outside, and ends of these tubes to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Rectangular Tubes

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum U-Channels

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Hex Bars

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum T-Bars

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Z-Bars

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum I-Beams

Also known as American Standard I-Beams, these I-beams have rounded corners.

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Half-Round Bars

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Hex Tubes

Architectural 6063 Aluminum Rods

More corrosion resistant and easier to form than multipurpose 6061 aluminum, 6063 is primarily used for exterior railings, decorative trim, and door frames.

High-Strength 7075 Aluminum

High-Strength 7075 Aluminum Sheets and Bars

Originally developed for aircraft frames, uses for 7075 aluminum now include keys, gears, and other high-stress parts. It is often used as a replacement for 2024 aluminum because it’s stronger and provides similar performance in all other aspects.

High-Strength 7075 Aluminum Rods and Discs

Tight-Tolerance High-Strength 7075 Aluminum Rods

Ready for turning in a lathe, these rods are precision ground and held to a strict straightness tolerance.

Aluminum Balls

Lighter in weight than steel and stronger than plastic, these aluminum balls are widely used as bearings and in valves.

Linear Motion Shafts

Combine these general purpose shafts with a linear bearing and shaft support to create a basic linear motion system.

Support-Rail Shafts

These shafts include a support rail for a stable setup that eliminates bending and prevents linear bearings from rotating.

Aluminum Tubing

General Purpose Aluminum Tubing

Aluminum tubing is lightweight with good corrosion resistance and weldability.

Vacuum-Rated Large-Diameter Aluminum Tubing

Move bulk material, exhaust gas, or suck up dust in powerful vacuum systems—this tubing is large enough to transfer pellets and debris and strong enough to withstand nearly perfect vacuum. Made of aluminum, it’s lighter weight than steel tubing, so it’s best when you need to reduce the weight of your system. It also resists corrosion from frequent rinsing, humidity, and rain.

Mil. Spec. Aluminum Tubing

This tubing meets MIL-T-7081 standards.
