Alloy 6061-T6 is a heat-treated, medium-to-high-strength aluminum alloy widely used in structural fabrication, machined components, and general metalworking applications. The T6 temper designation indicates it has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged, resulting in improved tensile strength and hardness compared to annealed stock. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians reach for 6061-T6 rod when they need a material that machines cleanly, accepts anodizing, and holds up under moderate mechanical loads. The rod ships as a single piece at approximately 2.14 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis round rod is suited for machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light fabrication environments. Typical uses include turned shaft stock, pins, spacers, standoffs, and custom fastener blanks. It is appropriate for both CNC and manual lathe operations. The 12-inch length is a standard drop-size that fits benchtop lathes and smaller machining centers without further rough cutting. Metalworking professionals and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary users of this stock form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlloy 6061-T6 temper — heat-treated for improved strength and machinability over annealed aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-inch (1-foot) length with a stated length tolerance of 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight aluminum construction at approximately 2.14 pounds per piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound rod form ready for lathe turning, milling, or manual fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-piece packaging — no minimum multi-piece commitment beyond one unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as standard 6061-T6 aluminum round rod stock suitable for general machining, fabrication, and maintenance repair operations where this alloy and temper are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCutting, turning, or drilling aluminum rod should be performed with tooling rated for non-ferrous metals and appropriate cutting fluid to prevent galling and heat buildup. Secure the workpiece firmly in a chuck or vise before machining to prevent slippage. Follow applicable shop safety practices including eye protection and chip management. Deburr all cut ends before fitting into assemblies to avoid injury and ensure proper seating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlloy Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6061-T6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches (1 foot)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30102406\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 02629418\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722095067442,"sku":"02629418","price":58.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d7ae55840270d204d908dd09aff7e837.jpg?v=1788585615","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-02629418-aluminum-round-rod-6061-t6","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
