Aluminum Round Bar 6061 T651 Cold Finished

6061-T651 cold finished aluminum bar is a specific type of aluminum alloy bar that has undergone a cold finishing process to achieve its final dimensions and surface finish. The "6061" designation refers to the alloy composition, which primarily consists of aluminum, magnesium, and silicon, making it a popular choice for applications requiring strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability. The "T651" temper designation indicates that the bar has been solution heat-treated, artificially aged, and then stretched to relieve internal stresses, resulting in improved mechanical properties and stability. Cold finishing involves processes such as cold drawing or cold rolling to achieve precise dimensions and a smooth surface finish. This type of aluminum bar is commonly used in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, machinery, and construction, where high strength, dimensional accuracy, and corrosion resistance are required.
