    Anodized Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Bars

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Aluminum. Anodized Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum Bars.
    All the benefits of 6061 aluminum, plus extra wear and corrosion resistance. Bonded with a thick coating (anodizing), these bars resist scratches and won’t degrade as quickly as uncoated bars.
    6061 is the most widely used aluminum, made into everything from pipe fittings to containers to airplane parts. It balances strength and corrosion resistance, not to mention it’s easy to machine and weld.
    Decorative Anodize—This anodized coating creates a uniform finish, so paint and adhesive go on smoothly.
