Price range: $18.00 through $35.00

Part#: ARO6178 Category
DESCRIPTION

A 7/8″ aluminum round bar 6061-T6 is a solid cylindrical rod made from 6061 aluminum alloy, with a diameter of 7/8 inch (0.875″). This size is larger than many standard round bars, providing extra strength and durability for heavy-duty applications, while still being lightweight due to the properties of aluminum.

📐 Basic Specifications:

  • Diameter: 7/8 inch (0.875″ or ~22.23 mm)
  • Material: Aluminum Alloy 6061
  • Temper: T6 (solution heat-treated and artificially aged)
  • Shape: Solid round bar (not hollow)

🧪 6061-T6 Aluminum Properties:

  • Tensile Strength: ~45,000 psi
  • Yield Strength: ~40,000 psi
  • Hardness: Brinell ~95
  • Corrosion Resistance: Excellent — ideal for outdoor, marine, and industrial environments
  • Machinability: Very good — suitable for cutting, drilling, turning, and milling
  • Weldability: Excellent for MIG and TIG welding processes

🔧 Common Uses for 7/8″ Round Bar:

  • Shafts, spindles, and axles for larger machinery or vehicles
  • Pins, standoffs, and dowels
  • Heavy-duty structural rods or support beams
  • CNC machined parts for custom applications
  • Tooling, fixtures, and dies
  • Automotive, aerospace, and marine applications
  • DIY projects and prototypes needing extra strength
* 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.
