2.5" x 0.25" Aluminum Square Tube 6061-T6-Extruded

This 2.5" x 0.25" 6061-T6 aluminum square tube offers increased strength and thickness, making it suitable for applications requiring higher load-bearing capacity. It is commonly used in structural frames, transport vehicles, and machinery components. The tube provides durable support and high performance, especially in environments with demanding structural requirements.

Size: 2.5" x 0.25" (Width x Wall Thickness)

Alloy: 6061-T6

Processing Method: Extrusion

Properties: This aluminum square tube has a thicker wall at 0.25" providing enhanced structural strength and resistance to bending and mechanical stress. The 6061-T6 alloy maintains excellent corrosion resistance, even in highly corrosive environments like marine or coastal areas. The tube is also known for its excellent weldability and machinability, making it a versatile choice for custom fabrication. The higher wall thickness ensures better load-bearing capacity, making it ideal for applications in structural frameworks, heavy-duty machinery, and large-scale industrial equipment.

Material Meets These Standard(s): ASTM-B221
