Overview
Overview
About this aluminium hexagon bar
Material: Aluminium Aluminium is a lightweight and corrosion-resistant metal widely used in various industries due to its favourable combination of strength, durability, and low density.
Weldability: Fair This suggests that the aluminium hexagon bar can be welded, but the welding process may require some care and attention to achieve optimal results.
Shape: Hexagon The bar is shaped in a hexagonal cross-section, providing six flat sides. This shape can offer advantages in terms of stability and ease of gripping in certain applications.
Corrosion Resistance: Excellent Aluminium is known for its excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for applications where exposure to harsh environmental conditions or corrosive substances is a concern.
Finish: Mill Finish The bar has a mill finish, indicating that its surface has been left untreated after the manufacturing process. This finish retains the natural appearance of the metal.
Grade: 6082 This refers to the specific alloy grade of aluminium used in the hexagon bar. Grade 6082 is a heat-treatable alloy with good strength and excellent corrosion resistance.
Width: 4.8mm This is the width of the hexagon bar, measured across one of its flat sides.
Width Across Flat: 4.8mm This is the measurement of the distance across the flat sides of the hexagon bar, ensuring that it is consistent with the specified width.
Weight/Metre (Kg): 0.05 This indicates the weight of the aluminium hexagon bar per meter, providing information about its mass and density.
