Value Collection 02629475 Aluminum Round Rod 6061-T6

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 02629475 is a solid aluminum round rod machined from 6061-T6 alloy stock. It measures 2 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length, with a length tolerance of plus or minus 0.25 inches. Alloy 6061-T6 is a heat-treated, precipitation-hardened aluminum known for its combination of moderate-to-high strength, good corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability. This rod is well suited for turning, milling, drilling, and general fabrication work. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians use this stock to produce shafts, pins, spacers, bushings, and structural components across a wide range of industries.

This aluminum round rod is commonly used in general industrial fabrication, maintenance and repair operations, prototyping, and light structural applications. The 6061-T6 temper makes it a practical choice where weldability and formability are needed alongside reasonable tensile strength. It is appropriate for both shop and field fabrication environments where standard bar stock is cut to length or turned on a lathe to finished dimension.

Key Features

• 6061-T6 aluminum alloy provides good strength-to-weight ratio with solid machinability
• 2 inches diameter suits medium-duty shaft, bushing, and structural component applications
• 12 inches length with plus or minus 0.25 inch length tolerance
• Lightweight aluminum construction resists corrosion in most industrial environments
• Ready for sawing, turning, drilling, milling, or welding without pre-treatment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6061-T6 aluminum round bar stock suitable for general machining and fabrication applications where 2-inch diameter aluminum rod is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting and machining of aluminum bar stock should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate tooling rated for non-ferrous metals. Always secure the workpiece properly before cutting or turning to prevent movement. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection when machining. Follow applicable shop safety standards and local regulations for metalworking operations.
