Product Overview
This Aluminium Round bar is available as grade 2011 T3, an alloy that both machines exceptionally well and has a high mechanical strength. Often referred to as a 'Free Machining Alloy,' it is well suited for use in automatic lathes. The production of complex and detailed parts is excellent with these machining characteristics; however, 2011 T3 does have poorer corrosion resistance.
Applications
2011 T3 is often used in applications that require manufactured parts made from repetition machining, including:
- Automotive Trim
- Appliance Parts
- Ordnance Parts
- Fasteners & Fittings
