Value Collection 2024.375X12X12F Aluminum Rectangular Bar

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2024.375X12X12F is a solid aluminum rectangular bar machined from Alloy 2024, a high-strength aluminum alloy widely used in structural and fabrication applications. The bar measures 12 inches long, 1.25 inches wide, and 0.375 inches thick, with a finished weight of 0.55 pounds. Width tolerance is plus or minus 0.002 inches and thickness tolerance is plus or minus 0.002 inches, making this bar suitable for applications requiring close dimensional control. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians use Alloy 2024 bar stock for brackets, fixtures, spacers, and structural components where strength-to-weight ratio matters.

This rectangular bar is suited for general industrial fabrication, tooling, and repair work in commercial and light industrial settings. The 12-inch length is a convenient stock size for bench machining, cutting to final dimension, or use as-is in smaller assemblies. Alloy 2024 is commonly selected for aerospace-influenced structural parts, machine frames, and high-stress brackets. The bar ships as a single piece per package and is stocked at a minimum order quantity of one unit, making it accessible for single-piece repair or prototype work as well as larger fabrication runs.

Key Features

• Alloy 2024 aluminum for high strength and good machinability
• 12-inch length provides a ready-to-machine or ready-to-use stock size
• Tight dimensional tolerances: plus or minus 0.002 inches on both width and thickness
• Lightweight at 0.55 pounds, reducing load in weight-sensitive assemblies
• Single-piece minimum order quantity for flexibility on small jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard stock aluminum rectangular bar suitable for general fabrication, machining, and structural applications requiring Alloy 2024 material properties.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, or machining should be performed by a qualified machinist or fabricator using tooling rated for aluminum alloys. Deburr all cut edges before handling or assembling into finished components. When integrating into structural assemblies, follow applicable engineering or design specifications for fastener torque and joint design. Personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves is recommended during all cutting and machining operations.
