Value Collection 02629699 Aluminum Round Rod 6061-T6

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 02629699 is a solid aluminum round rod machined from 6061-T6 alloy, measuring 3.75 inches in diameter and 36 inches in length. This rod is a general-purpose bar stock used in fabrication, structural, and repair applications across industrial and trade environments. The 6061-T6 temper designation indicates the material has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged, delivering a strong combination of tensile strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians commonly cut, drill, mill, or turn this stock to produce shafts, spacers, pins, and structural components. The rod weighs approximately 44.87 pounds as supplied.

This round rod is suited for both commercial and industrial fabrication settings where a machinable, weldable aluminum bar stock is required. Common applications include HVAC support fabrication, plumbing fixture components, electrical enclosure hardware, and general structural framing. It is appropriate for use in environments where corrosion resistance and moderate-to-high strength are required without the weight penalty of steel. The 36-inch length allows for multiple cuts per bar depending on finished-part requirements.

Key Features

• 6061-T6 alloy provides high strength-to-weight ratio with good corrosion resistance
• 3.75-inch diameter supports heavy-duty machined or fabricated components
• 36-inch standard length with a length tolerance of plus or minus 0.25 inches
• Weldable and machinable with standard metalworking tooling
• Suitable for structural, mechanical, and fabrication applications across multiple trades

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 6061-T6 aluminum round bar stock for use in machining, fabrication, and structural applications where standard aluminum alloy bar stock dimensions are required.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, or machining should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate metalworking equipment. Always secure the workpiece properly before cutting to prevent movement or injury. Follow applicable shop safety standards and local codes when incorporating fabricated components into mechanical or structural assemblies. Deburr all cut edges before handling or installation to avoid injury and to ensure proper fit.
