Value Collection 2024 .75X1X72F Aluminum Rectangular Bar

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2024 .75X1X72F is a solid aluminum rectangular bar machined from 2024 alloy stock. It measures 72 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 0.75 inches thick, and weighs 5.31 pounds. Alloy 2024 is a high-strength aluminum known for its excellent fatigue resistance and machinability, making it a go-to choice for structural fabrication, brackets, and custom parts. Width and thickness tolerances are held to plus or minus 0.0025 inches, suitable for applications requiring consistent dimensional accuracy. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in industrial, HVAC, or mechanical service environments commonly use this bar stock for custom component fabrication and repair work.

This rectangular bar is suited for general fabrication tasks where a strong, lightweight aluminum stock is required. Typical applications include structural supports, mounting brackets, slide rails, spacers, and custom machined components. The 72-inch length provides enough material for multiple cut-to-size parts from a single piece. It is appropriate for use in light industrial, mechanical, and commercial maintenance settings where 2024 alloy aluminum properties are specified or preferred.

Key Features

• 2024 alloy aluminum construction with high strength-to-weight ratio and good fatigue resistance
• 72-inch overall length suitable for multiple cut-to-size applications
• Width tolerance of plus or minus 0.0025 inches for consistent fitment
• Thickness tolerance of plus or minus 0.0025 inches for precise machining applications
• 5.31-pound weight makes it manageable for bench and field fabrication work

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum bar stock suitable for structural fabrication, custom bracket work, and replacement part machining in industrial and commercial maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

This bar stock is typically cut, drilled, or machined by qualified fabricators or maintenance technicians using standard metalworking tools. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when cutting or machining aluminum. Deburr all cut edges before installation to prevent injury and to ensure proper fit. Follow applicable facility safety and fabrication standards when incorporating machined components into mechanical or structural assemblies.
