As a reliable supplier with annual export value exceeding US$50 million and a workforce of 51-100 skilled employees, we deliver high-quality aluminum rods that meet the stringent demands of global markets including North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. This product is engineered for precision applications where tight tolerances and consistent material properties are critical.
Our 6061 T6 aluminum rod is a versatile solution for industries requiring lightweight yet strong components. With a diameter of 12mm and a length of 3000mm, it offers excellent machinability, weldability, and corrosion resistance. The T6 temper ensures superior strength and hardness, while the precision machining achieves a tolerance of +/-0.05mm, making it ideal for further processing into custom parts. Below are the key technical specifications:
| Property | Value |
| Alloy & Temper | 6061-T6 |
| Diameter | 12mm (+/-0.05mm tolerance) |
| Length | 3000mm (customizable upon request) |
| Standard | ASTM B221 |
| Tensile Strength | ≥ 310 MPa (typical) |
| Yield Strength | ≥ 276 MPa (typical) |
| Elongation | 12-17% (typical) |
Product Features & Benefits:
- Precision Tolerance: +/-0.05mm diameter ensures consistent fit in subsequent machining operations, reducing scrap and rework.
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: 6061-T6 offers excellent mechanical properties while remaining lightweight, ideal for aerospace, automotive, and structural applications.
- Excellent Machinability: The T6 temper provides good chip formation and surface finish, allowing efficient CNC turning, milling, and drilling.
- Corrosion Resistance: Natural oxide layer protects against atmospheric corrosion; can be anodized for enhanced protection.
- Weldability: Suitable for TIG, MIG, and resistance welding with minimal preheating.
- Versatile Applications: Used in precision shafts, spacers, bushings, fittings, and custom machined parts across multiple industries.
- ASTM B221 Compliant: Meets international standard for extruded aluminum rod, ensuring consistent quality and traceability.
- Customizable Lengths: Available in 3000mm standard length; other lengths can be cut to order.
The 6061 alloy is one of the most widely used aluminum grades due to its balanced properties. Our T6 temper (solution heat-treated and artificially aged) maximizes strength while maintaining good ductility. Each rod is precision machined to achieve the tight +/-0.05mm tolerance, making it ready for immediate use in high-precision assemblies. The 12mm diameter is a common size for small-scale components, and the 3000mm length provides ample material for multiple parts or long continuous pieces.
Quality Assurance: Every batch undergoes rigorous inspection including dimensional checks, chemical composition analysis, and mechanical testing. Our ISO9001-certified quality management system ensures consistent product quality from raw material sourcing to final packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
1. What is the exact tolerance of this aluminum rod?
The diameter tolerance is +/-0.05mm, ensuring a precise fit for machining applications. The length tolerance is typically +/-3mm for standard 3000mm lengths, but tighter tolerances are available upon request.
2. Can you provide a material test certificate (MTC)?
Yes, we can provide an MTC including chemical composition and mechanical properties for each batch. Please specify when placing your order.
3. Is this rod suitable for anodizing?
Absolutely. 6061 aluminum responds well to anodizing, including hard coat and clear anodizing. The surface finish after machining is smooth, which enhances the anodized appearance.
4. Do you offer custom lengths or cutting services?
Yes, we can cut the rod to any length between 100mm and 3000mm, with a small additional charge for non-standard lengths. Please contact our sales team for details.
5. What is the packaging for export?
Each rod is individually wrapped with protective paper or plastic film, then bundled with steel straps and packed in wooden crates or pallets to prevent damage during transit. We also offer custom packaging based on destination requirements.
6. How long is the lead time for an order of 1000 pieces?
Lead time depends on current production schedule. Typically, we can deliver within 15-25 working days for standard specifications. For urgent orders, please inquire about expedited options.
7. Can you supply other diameters or alloys?
Yes, we offer a wide range of aluminum rods in diameters from 6mm to 200mm, in alloys such as 6061, 6063, 7075, and 2024. Stock availability varies. Please provide your requirements for a quotation.
8. Is the product RoHS compliant?
Yes, our 6061 aluminum rods are RoHS compliant and free from restricted substances. We can furnish a RoHS declaration upon request.
