2.000″ Aluminum Plate 6061-T651 – Heavy Duty Structural Aluminum Plate

2.000″ Aluminum Plate 6061-T651 – Heavy Duty Structural Aluminum Plate

Price range: $340.99 through $2,642.96

DESCRIPTION

2.000″ Aluminum Plate 6061-T651 is a premium heat-treated aluminum plate engineered for heavy-duty structural, industrial, aerospace, and precision machining applications. Manufactured from 6061-T651 aluminum alloy, this plate delivers an outstanding combination of strength, dimensional stability, corrosion resistance, and machinability, making it one of the most versatile aluminum plate materials available.

The T651 temper indicates that the plate has been solution heat-treated, stress-relieved by stretching, and artificially aged to reduce internal stresses and improve dimensional stability. This process makes it an excellent choice for CNC machining and precision fabrication, where accuracy and minimal distortion are essential.

With a 2.000″ thickness, this aluminum plate provides exceptional rigidity, strength, and load-bearing capacity while remaining significantly lighter than steel. It is ideal for demanding applications requiring a robust, machinable material with excellent long-term performance.

This 6061-T651 aluminum plate is available in multiple plate sizes with cut-to-size options, allowing you to order the exact dimensions your project requires.

* Prices are subject to change without notice due to fluctuations in the metals market. | All “Value Length” and “Value Pack” item measurements are subject to standard mill tolerances. | Products may be manufactured several thousandths of an inch over or under the stated dimensions and still be within acceptable mill tolerances. All bar, tube, structural, pipe, sheet, plate, and similar products sold on our website are custom cut to the lengths and sizes selected by the customer at the time of purchase. These are not stocked as pre-cut items. Because each order is cut specifically to customer specifications, all cut materials are considered custom products and are not eligible for cancellation, return, or exchange once production has begun. Our standard cutting tolerances are:

  • Length: +0.125″ / -0.062″
  • During the cutting process, the saw blade removes approximately 1/16″ (kerf) of material. This is a normal part of the manufacturing process and is already included within the stated cutting tolerances.
