Value Collection 7075-0.5x72R Aluminum Round Rod 7075

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 7075-0.5x72R is a solid aluminum round rod machined from Alloy 7075, one of the highest-strength aluminum alloys available for structural and fabrication applications. Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter and 72 inches in length, this rod is ready for cutting, drilling, threading, or turning on a lathe. It weighs approximately 1.43 pounds. Alloy 7075 delivers a strong strength-to-weight ratio and is widely used in applications where load-bearing performance and machinability both matter. This material is a standard stock choice for machinists, fabricators, and maintenance professionals working in industrial, aerospace-adjacent, or high-performance mechanical applications.

This round rod is suited for shop environments where Alloy 7075 stock is needed for custom shafts, pins, structural supports, brackets, or tooling components. Its 72-inch length provides flexibility for multiple cuts from a single piece. The 0.5-inch diameter is a common size for close-tolerance machined parts. Fabrication shops, machine shops, and MRO operations are the primary users of this stock form. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of one piece.

Key Features

• Alloy 7075 aluminum for high strength-to-weight performance in demanding fabrication applications
• 0.5 inch diameter provides a common stock size for machined shafts, pins, and structural components
• 72 inch length allows multiple cuts from a single piece, reducing material waste
• Solid round rod cross-section compatible with standard lathe, mill, and drill operations
• Lightweight at 1.43 pounds per piece for easy handling and transport in the shop

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum round rod stock for use in machining, fabrication, and maintenance repair operations requiring Alloy 7075 material in a 0.5 inch diameter round form.

Installation Notes

Cutting, threading, or machining of aluminum rod stock should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate tooling rated for non-ferrous metals. Always wear appropriate eye and hand protection when cutting or machining. Secure the workpiece firmly before any material removal operation. Follow applicable shop safety standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines when using lathes, mills, or saws.
