Value Collection 78691250 Aluminum Strip 6061

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 78691250 is a flat aluminum strip machined from 6061 alloy, measuring 12 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 0.125 inches thick. It is a general-purpose metal stock used in fabrication, repair, and structural support applications across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades. The 6061 alloy provides a practical balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability, making it suitable for brackets, spacers, backing plates, and custom hardware. Each unit is sold individually and weighs approximately 0.3 pounds.

This aluminum strip is appropriate for light fabrication tasks in both residential and commercial settings. Trades use it for mounting brackets, duct supports, equipment standoffs, and field-fabricated hardware. Its flat profile and standard dimensions allow straightforward cutting with hand tools or shop equipment. The 6061 alloy machines and drills cleanly, which suits on-site modifications without specialized tooling.

Installation Notes

This strip is raw metal stock and does not require system power-down for handling, though appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection should be used during cutting or drilling. Standard metalworking tools such as hacksaws, jigsaws with metal-cutting blades, or drill presses are appropriate for shaping. Edges should be deburred after cutting to prevent injury and ensure proper fitment. Fastener selection and load ratings should be verified by the installer per applicable project specifications.
