Value Collection 2024 .375X2X12F Aluminum Rectangular Bar

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2024 .375X2X12F is a solid aluminum rectangular bar machined from Alloy 2024, a high-strength aluminum alloy commonly used in structural and fabrication applications. This bar measures 12 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 0.375 inches thick, with tight tolerances of plus or minus 0.002 inches on both width and thickness. Weighing 0.89 pounds, it is well suited for light structural work, fixturing, and general metalworking projects where precise dimensions are required. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians work with this material regularly in shop and field settings.

Alloy 2024 aluminum rectangular bar is commonly used in aerospace-adjacent fabrication, structural brackets, machine components, and repair stock where good strength-to-weight ratio and machinability are priorities. This piece ships as a single unit and is appropriate for one-off fabrication, prototype work, or replacement stock in industrial maintenance environments. The compact 12-inch length makes it practical for bench work and small-scale machining operations.
