About this aluminium flat bar
Material: The flat bar is made from aluminum, a lightweight metal known for its excellent corrosion resistance and favorable strength-to-weight ratio.
Weldability: This flat bar exhibits fair weldability, indicating that it can be welded. However, attention to welding techniques and considerations is crucial for achieving optimal results.
Shape: The flat bar design signifies that the aluminum is shaped into a flat and elongated rectangular form. This shape is well-suited for applications requiring a straight and flat surface.
Corrosion Resistance: The flat bar boasts excellent corrosion resistance, a crucial property of aluminum. This characteristic makes it suitable for applications in environments where exposure to moisture or corrosive elements is a concern, ensuring long-term durability.
Finish: The finish of this flat bar is described as "Mill Finish." A mill finish is a standard finish straight from the mill without additional surface treatment. It typically has a slightly rough appearance and may have visible lines or marks from the manufacturing process.
Grade: The aluminum used is of Grade 6082, a specific alloy known for its good machinability, weldability, and high corrosion resistance. Different grades offer varying properties to meet specific application requirements.
Thickness: The flat bar has a thickness of 6.3mm, indicating the measurement from one flat side to the opposite flat side.
Width: The width of the flat bar is 50.8mm, representing the measurement from one edge to the opposite edge along the shorter dimension.
Weight/Metre (Kg): The weight of one meter of this flat bar is 0.87 kilograms. This information is crucial for determining the overall weight of the material for specific applications and structural considerations.
