Value Collection 05207774 Aluminum Rectangular Bar 6061

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 05207774 is a 6061 aluminum rectangular bar measuring 72 inches long, 5 inches wide, and 0.375 inches thick. Weighing 13.5 pounds, this bar is milled from Alloy 6061, a widely used structural aluminum grade known for its balance of strength, machinability, and corrosion resistance. It is suited for fabrication, structural framing, support brackets, and general metalworking applications. Machinists, fabricators, millwrights, and maintenance professionals working in industrial, commercial, and trade settings are the primary installers and end users of this stock material.

This bar is a standard stock-length piece at 72 inches (6 feet) and is used across a broad range of fabrication and maintenance scenarios. Typical applications include structural supports, machine bases, frames, brackets, HVAC equipment mounting components, electrical panel supports, and custom fabrication projects. The 5-inch width and 3/8-inch thickness make it appropriate for medium-duty structural uses where flat stock is required. Length tolerance is plus or minus 0.250 inches, which should be accounted for in precision layout work.

Key Features

• Sold individually — minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 6061 aluminum rectangular bar for use in structural fabrication, equipment mounting, and metalworking applications where flat aluminum stock of this profile is required.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, and machining should be performed with tools rated for non-ferrous metals. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when cutting or deburring aluminum bar stock. When used in structural or load-bearing applications, verify that the selected alloy and dimensions meet the design load requirements per applicable codes. Deburr all cut edges before final installation to prevent injury and material damage.
