About 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.

Oversized Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Sheets

The thickness is oversized to allow for finishing to exact requirements.

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.

Polished Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Rods

Choose between rods that are polished to a brushed finish or a mirror-like finish.

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.
