Aluminium Flat Bar 55mm x 6mm
Description
The 55mm x 6mm aluminium flat bar is a medium-weight, precision-extruded profile manufactured from EN AW-6063 aluminium alloy in T6 temper. Offering a strong combination of width and thickness, it is well-suited for applications that require both coverage and moderate structural strength.
Typical uses include bracketing, modular frames, machine bases, cabinetry supports, and architectural detailing. The 6 mm thickness ensures reliable performance under moderate loads, while the 55 mm width provides broad coverage for stability or design continuity.
This profile features a clean mill finish and excellent dimensional accuracy for use in CNC machining, drilling, and bending. Surface finishes like anodising or powder coating are available on request to improve corrosion resistance or visual appeal.
➤ Minimum order quantity: 500 kg.
➤ Worldwide delivery via road, sea, or air freight.
