Overview
Overview
About this aluminium flat bar
Material: Aluminium is a lightweight non-ferrous metal known for its excellent corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and good thermal and electrical conductivity. It is widely used in various industries due to its versatility.
Weldability: The fair weldability indicates that while aluminium can be welded, some care and specific techniques may be needed to achieve satisfactory results. Welding considerations include factors such as heat input and joint design.
Shape: The flat bar shape indicates a long, rectangular cross-section with a flat surface. Flat bars are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and other applications where a flat and elongated profile is required.
Corrosion Resistance: Aluminium exhibits excellent corrosion resistance due to the formation of a protective oxide layer on its surface. This property makes it suitable for use in corrosive environments or outdoor applications.
Finish: The mill finish suggests that the flat bar has a surface finish as it comes directly from the manufacturing process, without additional surface treatment or polishing. Mill finish surfaces often have a slightly textured appearance.
Grade: Grade 6082 is a heat-treatable aluminium alloy known for its high strength and good machinability. It is commonly used in structural applications and offers a good balance of properties.
Thickness: The thickness of the flat bar is 6.3 millimeters, indicating the distance between its two parallel surfaces.
Width: The width of the flat bar is 38.1 millimeters, representing the measurement across the broader dimension of the rectangular cross-section.
Weight/Metre (Kg): The weight per meter of the flat bar is 0.65 kilograms, providing information about its mass per unit length.
