Aluminium Bars and Rods
Aluminium bars and rods are widely used across industries due to their lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and versatile properties. Available in various shapes, sizes, and alloys, aluminium bars and rods are suitable for structural, industrial, and aesthetic applications. Aluminium’s excellent machinability and adaptability to surface treatments make it ideal for both functional and decorative uses.
Key Benefits of Aluminium Bars and Rods
- Lightweight: Aluminium is significantly lighter than other metals like steel, reducing transportation costs and making it easy to handle and install.
- Corrosion Resistance: Aluminium naturally resists corrosion, which makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, as well as harsh environments.
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Despite its lightweight properties, aluminium offers a high level of strength, making it a preferred material for load-bearing applications.
- Machinability and Weldability: Aluminium is easy to machine and weld, making it suitable for complex shapes and intricate designs.
- Thermal and Electrical Conductivity: Aluminium’s high conductivity makes it an ideal material for heat transfer applications as well as electrical projects.
Aluminium Grades for Bars and Rods
Our aluminium bars and rods are available in various grades, each suited to specific applications:
- 6061: Known for its strength, weldability, and corrosion resistance, this grade is commonly used for structural applications.
- 6063: With a smooth surface finish and good corrosion resistance, 6063 is often chosen for architectural applications.
- 2024: Offers excellent strength and fatigue resistance, making it ideal for aerospace applications.
- 7075: Known for its exceptional strength, 7075 is often used in high-stress applications such as military and aerospace.
- 5083: High resistance to corrosion, particularly in marine environments, makes 5083 ideal for shipbuilding and other marine uses.
Types of Aluminium Bars and Rods
- Round Bars: Commonly used in manufacturing, automotive, and aerospace industries for applications requiring strength and lightweight properties.
- Square Bars: Often used in structural applications, square bars provide stability and are easy to work with.
- Flat Bars: Suitable for construction, supports, and frames, aluminium flat bars are versatile and offer a larger surface area for structural strength.
- Hexagonal Bars: Popular in machinery and automotive parts due to their geometric stability and aesthetic appeal.
- Rectangular Bars: Ideal for industrial fabrication, providing support and structure in machinery and equipment.
Applications of Aluminium Bars and Rods
