National Mfg N247-213 Aluminum Rectangular Bar 1x72 Inch

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N247-213 is a 1-inch by 72-inch aluminum rectangular bar engineered for structural reinforcement, base plate fabrication, and general repair work. Aluminum construction keeps the bar lightweight at 0.46 pounds while maintaining the strength needed to withstand heavy pressure and sustained loads. The material is malleable enough to be bent or formed into a variety of shapes without specialized industrial equipment, making it a practical stock material for trade and maintenance applications. Licensed contractors and skilled tradespeople working across mechanical, structural, or facilities maintenance disciplines will find this a dependable raw stock item.

This rectangular bar is suited for both interior and exterior applications, including HVAC equipment base plate fabrication, plumbing support brackets, electrical conduit mounting strips, and general structural repair in residential and commercial settings. Its corrosion-resistant aluminum composition makes it a reliable choice in environments where moisture exposure is a concern. The bar ships as a single piece and is ready to cut, drill, or form on-site to the required dimensions.
