Aluminium Flat Bar 160mm x 15mm
Description
The 160mm x 15mm aluminium flat bar is an extra-wide, heavy-gauge extrusion designed for high-stress industrial and structural applications. Manufactured from EN AW-6063 aluminium alloy in T6 temper, this profile delivers superior rigidity, corrosion resistance, and machinability for demanding engineering tasks.
With its substantial 15 mm thickness and 160 mm width, it is well-suited for machine beds, base plates, tooling fixtures, support structures, and custom fabrication where high mechanical strength is required. Its flat surface and consistent dimensions ensure reliable performance in automated machining and precision assembly environments.
Standard mill finish is supplied, with anodised or powder-coated options available on request for improved durability or aesthetic use in architectural and exposed installations.
Engineered for manufacturers, fabricators, and industrial clients who demand strength, precision, and scalable supply for large-scale projects.
➤ Minimum order quantity: 500 kg.
➤ Worldwide delivery via road, sea, or air freight.
