.250″ Aluminum Plate 6061-T651 – Structural Aluminum Plate

Price range: $93.42 through $642.37

Part#: APL61250 Category
DESCRIPTION

.250″ Aluminum Plate 6061-T651 is a high-strength heat-treated aluminum plate designed for structural, industrial, aerospace, and precision machining applications. Manufactured from 6061-T651 aluminum alloy, this plate offers an excellent combination of strength, machinability, corrosion resistance, and weldability, making it one of the most versatile aluminum materials available.

The T651 temper indicates that the plate has been solution heat-treated, stress-relieved by stretching, and artificially aged. This process improves dimensional stability and reduces internal stress, making it an excellent choice for CNC machining and precision fabrication.

With a .250″ (1/4″) thickness, this aluminum plate provides an ideal balance of strength, rigidity, and lightweight performance for a wide variety of structural and manufacturing applications.

* 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”. Since we cut the material specifically for your order, they follow these tolerances: Length: +0.125″ / -0.062” – Please note that during cutting, the blade removes about 1/16″ of material (kerf). This is a normal part of the process and is already considered within the stated tolerances.
