Saw cuts and machining allowance

Our standard saw-cut tolerance is +1/8″ / −0″ on cut length and width. Allow material for facing and finish machining. A different tolerance agreed on your order takes precedence.

Plate thickness, flatness and surface condition follow the supplied mill or producer specification. Full mill-stock pieces ship uncut and retain mill tolerances.

Mill certificates with your order

Mill certifications are included. Open or download certificates for your assigned material from My Orders once available. Specify DFARS or Domestic when your order requires it.

Alloy, temper, mill specifications and chemical analysis from a supplied plate certificate.

Choosing a temper

6061 combines moderate strength, corrosion resistance and machinability for general structural parts, fixtures and housings. Stress-relieved plate tempers are stretched after heat treatment to reduce residual stress before machining.

6061-T651 aluminum plate is stress relieved by stretching; AMS 4027 covers T651 plate. Extruded 6061-T6511 bar is a different product form. Match the drawing’s temper and specification when choosing material.

Machining and applications

Use sharp tools and effective chip evacuation for deep pockets. Cutting fluid can help finish and heavy cuts. Workholding and the amount and sequence of material removal affect movement.

  • Machined brackets, mounting plates and housings
  • Fixtures, jigs and mold bases
  • Marine hardware and general industrial components
