8" OD x 1.5" Wall x 5" ID Aluminum Round Tube 6061-T6-Extruded More Informations
Features: A thicker wall (1.5 inches) ensures high strength and pressure resistance. The T6 heat treatment provides superior fatigue resistance, high-temperature stability, and overall mechanical performance.
Applications:
- Heavy Industry: Used in heavy machinery frames, support systems, and structural reinforcement.
- Aerospace: Suitable for major structural parts such as fuselage frames and wing supports in aircraft.
- High-Pressure Systems: Ideal for hydraulic pipes, gas storage systems, and high-pressure fluid transport.
Processing: Manufactured via extrusion, then subjected to T6 heat treatment to increase strength and fatigue resistance. The alloy is suitable for welding and complex manufacturing processes.
Aluminum round tubes are mostly made of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, which provides excellent strength, corrosion resistance, processing performance and fatigue resistance in the T6 state after heat treatment. The extrusion molding process ensures that each tube has a consistent appearance, precise size and good mechanical properties suitable for various engineering requirements. It is suitable for many fields such as aviation, ships, automobiles, construction, machinery, etc.
