Aluminium hollow bars and rods are made up of aluminium alloy. Typical compositions include 6061 and 6082. The composition for 6061 contains 0.40-0.80% Si, 0.70-1.20% Fe, 0.15-0.40% Cu, 0.80-1.20% Mn, 1.2-1.8% Mg, 0.04-0.35% Cr, and 0.25% Zn, with the rest being aluminium. Mechanical properties of 6061 alloy include tensile strength of 290 MPa, yield strength of 240 MPa, and elongation of 12-17%. For 6082 it contains similar elements with slightly more strength range than, achieving tensile strengths to up to 340 MPa as well as yield to about 290 MPa.

Yes, aluminum hollow bars are corrosion-resistant due to the natural oxide layer that forms on the surface, providing protection against environmental elements like moisture, air, and chemicals.
Yes, aluminium hollow rods can be customized in both size and length according to specific requirements. Suppliers often offer options for diameter, wall thickness, and cut-to-length services.
Aluminum hollow bars and rods typically perform well in moderate temperatures but may lose strength and structural integrity in high-temperature environments above 200-250°C, becoming prone to deformation and oxidation.
Aluminium hollow bars and rods are valued in many industries for their light weight, strength, and resistance to corrosion. They are widely used in aerospace, automotive, and construction to make parts such as frames, supports, and brackets. Hollow bars are particularly useful for making strong, lightweight tubes used in fluid systems, heat exchangers, and piping. In the electrical industry, they are used as conductors and busbars. Other critical uses of aluminium rods include propellers and other pieces of equipment that are subject to tough marine environments. They also exhibit good machinability, which makes them perfect for any custom fabrication projects.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
