0.875" Aluminum Hexagonal Bar 6262-T6511-Extruded

The 0.875" Aluminum Hexagonal Bar 6262-T6511-Extruded is an extruded hexagonal bar with a measurement of 0.875 inches across the flats, referring to the distance between opposite sides of the hexagon. Manufactured from 6262-T6511 aluminum, this product undergoes a heat treatment process, including solution heat treatment, stress-relieving, and artificial aging, to achieve enhanced mechanical properties. The extrusion process creates a bar with high dimensional accuracy and smooth surfaces, making it suitable for moderate to heavy-duty structural applications. Its combination of strength, machinability, and corrosion resistance makes it ideal for use in automotive, aerospace, and marine industries.

6262 aluminum alloy is an alloy used primarily for lightweight structures and high-strength applications, particularly in environments requiring good processability and high corrosion resistance. The T6511 temper is obtained by solution heat treatment, stress relief treatment and artificial aging, which gives it high strength and good ductility. Compared to the T6510 temper, the straightening of T6511 is guaranteed, making it more reliable in certain demanding applications.

6262-T6511 aluminum alloy hexagonal bars have good strength, corrosion resistance and surface quality after extrusion. The T6511 temper ensures high strength and good fatigue resistance, while the extrusion process ensures consistency and precision of products of various specifications. They have a wide range of applications in aerospace, automotive, construction and precision machinery, especially for structural parts that require high strength, light weight and precision machining.

6262-T6511 aluminum alloy hexagonal bars can also be cold worked, providing a high surface finish and precision, making them widely used in aerospace, construction, machinery manufacturing and other precision industries. The T6511 state provides excellent strength and corrosion resistance, suitable for a variety of harsh environments, especially applications requiring high strength and lightweight.
