6061-T6511 round bar

Choose a current nominal diameter, then select cut length and quantity. T6511 identifies the extruded bar temper. Confirm that this product form and temper match the drawing before ordering.

Planning the finished dimensions

Allow for facing the saw-cut ends and turning or finishing the outside diameter. A nominal stock diameter is not a precision-ground diameter or a finished-part tolerance.

Use sharp tooling and effective chip control. Choose a machining allowance appropriate to the supplied stock and the finished geometry.

Specification references

ASTM B221 is a reference for extruded aluminum bar and shapes. Diameter and straightness requirements depend on size and the applicable specification. Confirm the exact temper, revision and supplied mill certification, along with any special dimensional requirements.
