Value Collection 2011-1.25x36R Aluminum Round Rod

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2011-1.25x36R is a solid aluminum round rod machined from Alloy 2011, a high-strength, free-machining aluminum alloy widely used in precision parts manufacturing. Measuring 1.25 inches in diameter and 36 inches in length, this rod is suited for lathe work, CNC turning, and fabrication of fittings, bushings, fasteners, and mechanical components. At 4.461 pounds, it offers a useful combination of machinability and structural integrity. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance professionals working in industrial, commercial, and trade settings rely on Alloy 2011 stock for applications where clean chip break and tight tolerances are priorities.

This round rod is appropriate for shop and field fabrication tasks requiring a readily machinable aluminum stock. Common applications include turned parts, shaft components, spacers, and custom fittings produced on manual or CNC lathes. Its 3-foot length provides practical stock for single-piece or short-run production without excessive material waste. It is well suited for mechanical shops, HVAC fabrication environments, and plumbing or industrial maintenance operations that produce custom aluminum components in-house.

Key Features

• 1.25 inch diameter provides substantial cross-section for turned or milled components
• 36 inch length offers practical stock for single or short-run fabrication
• Solid round rod profile ready for lathe, mill, or saw operations
• Lightweight at 4.461 pounds for easy handling and setup

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum round rod stock suitable for use in any machining or fabrication application requiring Alloy 2011 aluminum in a 1.25 inch diameter round profile.

Installation Notes

Cutting and machining operations should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate tooling for non-ferrous aluminum alloys. Always secure the workpiece firmly in a chuck or vise before cutting or turning to prevent movement. Use appropriate eye protection and chip guards when machining. Deburr all cut ends before handling or incorporating the rod into an assembly.
