Value Collection 05207915 Aluminum Bar 36x6x0.5 in 6061

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 05207915 is a solid aluminum rectangular bar machined from Alloy 6061 stock, measuring 36 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 0.5 inches thick. Alloy 6061 is a heat-treatable, general-purpose aluminum known for its good machinability, weldability, and corrosion resistance, making it a practical choice for fabrication, structural framing, and repair applications across multiple trades. The bar ships at 10.9 pounds and carries a length tolerance of plus or minus 0.25 inches. Machinists, fabricators, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly cut, drill, or mill this stock to size for custom components and structural supports.

This rectangular bar is suited for light structural fabrication, HVAC equipment mounting brackets, electrical enclosure supports, plumbing infrastructure framing, and general shop work requiring flat aluminum stock. Its 6-inch width provides a broad flat face useful for surface plates, slide rails, spacer blocks, and gussets. The 36-inch length allows multiple cuts from a single bar, reducing material waste on typical trade shop jobs.

Key Features

• Alloy 6061 aluminum for good machinability, weldability, and corrosion resistance
• Flat rectangular profile with a 6-inch width ideal for bracket and support fabrication
• 36-inch length yields multiple usable pieces from a single bar
• Length tolerance of plus or minus 0.25 inches suitable for cut-to-fit applications
• Ships as a single bar with no minimum order beyond one unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum flat bar for use in fabrication, maintenance, and structural support applications where Alloy 6061 aluminum stock is specified.

Installation Notes

Cutting and machining aluminum stock should be performed with appropriate carbide or high-speed steel tooling rated for non-ferrous metals. Eye protection and gloves are required when cutting or deburring edges. Verify dimensional needs against the stated length tolerance before cutting, as cut pieces are not returnable in most shop settings. For structural applications, consult applicable load tables and local building or mechanical codes before using aluminum bar as a primary structural member.
