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

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

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

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.

Made of 1000 series aluminum which is 99% pure, this aluminum offers superior formability, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity. It's frequently fabricated into raceways, decorative trim, and other parts where strength and hardness are not required.

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.

3000 series aluminum stands up to outdoor use, as well as exposure to chemicals. It offers a good combination of strength, formability, and weldability. It's often used for storage tanks, heat exchangers, garage doors, and general sheet metal work.

Includes one 1-1/2"×3"×0.032" thick piece of each texture: weave, diamond, and tread.

The honeycomb design provides a higher strength-to-weight ratio than solid sheets.

5086 aluminum is used on ships, oil rigs, tanks, and pressure vessels because of its excellent saltwater resistance and formability.

Also known as armor plate, these 5083 aluminum sheets are hardened to an H131 temper for increased strength and impact resistance over standard 5083 sheets.

Stronger than other marine-grade aluminum, 5456 is often used for pressure vessels and storage tanks in saltwater environments.

These sheets are clad in 1230 aluminum for an added layer of corrosion resistance.

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.

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.

Made of 5083 aluminum, these cast tool and jig plates are more corrosion resistant and respond better to anodizing than MIC6. This material is comparable to Alca 5 and ATP 5.

One side of these sheets has a brushed finish with grain lines running in one direction to mask fingerprints.

With the highest lead content of all the brass alloys, 360 offers the best machinability. Often called free-machining and free-cutting brass, it stands up to high-speed drilling, milling, and tapping operations with minimal wear on your tools. It’s commonly used for gears, pinions, and lock components.

Polished on one side to a reflective, mirror-like finish.

A lead-free alternative to 485 brass, 464 brass offers good weldability, strength, and wear resistance. It’s widely used for marine hardware, pump and propeller shafts, and rivets.

Keep shim stock in a variety of thicknesses on hand with these sets. Cut into custom shapes to fit your application.

This shim stock is color coded by thickness for easy identification. Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application.

Keep shim stock in a variety of thicknesses on hand with these sets, which are color coded by thickness for easy identification. Cut them into custom shapes to fit your application.

These sheets have good corrosion resistance, weldability, and formability. Aluminum is lightweight.

Brass is softer and easier to form compared to other metals.

More corrosion-resistant in salt water than stainless steel, these brass wire cloths are often used in marine environments.
