Value Collection 32012098 Aluminum Square Bar 6061

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 32012098 is a solid aluminum square bar measuring 1-5/8 inches square by 72 inches long, machined from Alloy 6061 stock. This is a general-purpose structural bar used in fabrication, repair, and custom component work across mechanical, industrial, and construction trades. The 6061 alloy designation indicates good machinability, weldability, and moderate-to-high strength, making it a reliable choice for brackets, frames, supports, and spacers. Length tolerance is plus or minus 0.25 inches. At 19 pounds, this bar provides substantial material for single-cut or multi-cut applications without requiring a bulk order.

This aluminum square bar is suited for machine shops, fabrication facilities, maintenance departments, and trade contractors who need cut-to-length or full-bar aluminum stock. Common applications include structural frames, jigs, fixtures, mounting supports, and custom fabricated parts in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical panel work. The 72-inch length gives fabricators a full 6-foot run, reducing waste on standard-length cuts. Alloy 6061 is compatible with MIG and TIG welding processes and accepts anodizing, powder coat, and other surface finishes.

Key Features

• Alloy 6061 aluminum for good strength, machinability, and weldability
• 1-5/8 inch square cross-section for structural rigidity in fabricated assemblies
• 72-inch full-length bar provides a 6-foot run for flexible cutting
• Length tolerance of plus or minus 0.25 inches for consistent fitment
• Suitable for welding, drilling, milling, and surface finishing operations

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum square bar for fabrication and structural applications requiring Alloy 6061 material in a 1-5/8 inch square profile.

Installation Notes

Cutting and fabrication should be performed by qualified machinists or tradespeople using appropriate saw, mill, or lathe equipment rated for non-ferrous metals. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when cutting or grinding aluminum. Deburr all cut edges before handling or installing in assemblies to prevent injury and ensure proper fit. Follow applicable structural or mechanical codes for the specific application where this bar is used.
