📐 Dimensions:

  • Thickness: 2 inches (2.000″)
  • Width: 8 inches (8.000″)

🧪 Material: 6061-T6 Aluminum

  • 6061: A heat-treatable aluminum alloy containing magnesium and silicon, providing:
    • High strength-to-weight ratio
    • Excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine, outdoor, and industrial environments
    • Good weldability and machinability
  • T6 Temper: The aluminum is heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve maximum strength, hardness, and stability.

⚙️ Typical Mechanical Properties:

  • Tensile Strength: ~45,000 psi
  • Yield Strength: ~40,000 psi
  • Brinell Hardness: ~95
  • Density: 0.098 lb/in³

🧰 Common Applications:

  • Structural beams, framing, and heavy-duty supports
  • Machine bases, custom mounting plates, and brackets
  • Aerospace, automotive, and marine components
  • Heavy-duty industrial tooling, fabrication, and custom parts
  • High-strength components for demanding environments

* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations.
* All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. This does NOT apply to Cut To Size items. Those will be +.125″, -0.00″ tolerances.
