Aluminium Square Bars and Rods typically consist of over 90% aluminium, with different alloying elements like magnesium, silicon, manganese, or copper added based on the specific grade (such as 6061, 6082, or 7075). These bars strike a fantastic balance between strength, formability, and corrosion resistance. Their mechanical properties include tensile strength ranging from 150 to 400 MPa and solid fatigue resistance. Plus, they’re lightweight, easy to machine, and perfect for anodizing or other finishing touches. Thanks to their mechanical and physical characteristics, aluminium square bars are ideal for structural, decorative, and precision-machined applications.

Yes, aluminum square bars are corrosion-resistant due to the formation of a protective oxide layer on the surface. This layer helps prevent further corrosion in most environmental conditions.
Aluminum square bars perform well in moderate heat but lose strength at high temperatures, typically above 200°C (392°F). They are not ideal for extreme high-temperature environments due to softening and deformation.
Yes, aluminum square rods can be customized in size and length based on specific requirements. Manufacturers offer a range of dimensions and can tailor the rods to meet individual project needs.
You’ll find Aluminium Square Bars and Rods in various industries where strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight materials are crucial. In construction, they’re used for frameworks, railings, and structural supports. In the automotive and aerospace fields, they find their place in brackets, panels, and structural reinforcements. They’re also popular in marine applications, electrical components, and furniture manufacturing due to their resistance to corrosion. In general engineering and fabrication, aluminium square rods are perfect for machining and welding tasks, offering cost-effective, durable, and high-performance solutions.
