Part#: API6121240 Category
DESCRIPTION

2-1/2″ Schedule 40 Aluminum Pipe (6061-T6) is a high-strength, heat-treated aluminum alloy pipe manufactured to ASTM B221 / ASTM B241 specifications. Produced from 6061-T6 aluminum, it offers an excellent balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight performance. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides durability for structural and pressure applications while maintaining ease of fabrication, welding, and machining. This pipe is commonly used in industrial, structural, and outdoor environments where weight reduction and corrosion resistance are critical.

Applications:
6061-T6 aluminum Schedule 40 pipe is commonly used in structural, mechanical, and industrial applications, including:
• Structural frameworks and support systems
• Handrails, guardrails, and safety structures
• Automotive and performance fabrication
• Marine and outdoor construction
• Fluid transfer systems (non-corrosive applications)
• Equipment frames and machinery supports

Advantages:
• High strength-to-weight ratio: Strong yet lightweight compared to steel
• Corrosion resistant: Performs well in outdoor and marine environments
• Heat treated (T6 temper): Improved mechanical strength and durability
• Good machinability: Easily cut, drilled, and fabricated
• Versatile use: Suitable for structural and industrial applications

Summary:
The 2-1/2″ Schedule 40 6061-T6 aluminum pipe is a strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant material designed for structural, mechanical, and fabrication applications. Its durability, ease of fabrication, and excellent strength-to-weight performance make it a reliable choice for industrial and outdoor use.

* 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.
