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

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

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

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

The outside of these tubes is anodized to improve wear and corrosion resistance.

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.

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.

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.
