Value Collection 08663817 Aluminum Square Bar 6061

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 08663817 is a 6061 aluminum square bar measuring 1-3/4 inches square by 36 inches long. Alloy 6061 is a heat-treatable aluminum alloy valued for its combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability. This bar stock is suited for fabrication, structural support, framing, brackets, and general metalworking applications. Length tolerance is plus or minus 0.25 inches. At 10.9 pounds, the bar offers solid mass for demanding shop and field work. Machinists, fabricators, welders, and maintenance tradespeople are the primary installers and end users of this stock material.

This aluminum square bar is appropriate for both light industrial and commercial fabrication environments. It is commonly used in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and construction applications where a machinable, weldable, and corrosion-resistant aluminum stock is required. The 36-inch length makes it suitable for cut-to-size work on standard shop equipment. Alloy 6061 accepts anodizing, welding, and standard machining operations, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of custom parts and structural components.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum bar stock for use in fabrication, machining, and structural applications requiring 6061 alloy square bar in a 1-3/4-inch cross-section.

Installation Notes

Handling and cutting of aluminum bar stock is typically performed by machinists or fabricators using standard metal-cutting equipment such as band saws, milling machines, or cold saws. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when cutting or machining. Secure the workpiece firmly before any cutting or drilling operation. Edges and cut ends will be sharp after machining and should be deburred before handling or assembly.
