Value Collection 2024-1.75x12R Aluminum Round Rod

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2024-1.75x12R is a solid aluminum round rod machined from Alloy 2024, measuring 1.75 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length. Alloy 2024 is a high-strength aluminum commonly used in structural and mechanical applications where a favorable strength-to-weight ratio is required. This rod stock weighs 2.92 pounds and is suited for use as raw material in fabrication, machining, or repair work. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in industrial, aerospace-adjacent, or general manufacturing environments will find this rod suitable for turning, milling, and cutting operations.

This round rod is intended for use as bar stock in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments. It is appropriate for applications that require a medium-to-high-strength aluminum alloy with good machinability. Typical uses include shafts, pins, spacers, bushings, and structural components where Alloy 2024 properties are specified. The 12-inch length provides a manageable starting blank for most lathe or mill setups.

Key Features

• Alloy 2024 aluminum construction offers high tensile strength relative to weight
• 1.75-inch diameter round cross-section ready for lathe, mill, or saw operations
• 12-inch length provides a practical starting blank for common machining tasks
• Solid rod stock with no hollow core, suitable for full-depth machining
• 2.92-pound unit weight consistent with Alloy 2024 density at stated dimensions

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose Alloy 2024 aluminum round rod suitable for fabrication and machining applications where this alloy grade and 1.75-inch diameter bar stock are specified.

Installation Notes

This rod stock is a raw material intended for further machining or fabrication before use in an assembly. Use appropriate cutting tools rated for aluminum alloys and apply suitable cutting fluid to extend tool life. Secure the workpiece properly in a lathe chuck or milling vise before beginning operations. Eye protection and adherence to applicable shop safety standards are required when machining aluminum rod stock.
