At Otalum, the extruded aluminium bar comes in 3 main shapes: square, round and flat. All shapes of our aluminium alloy bar can be cut to a customized size if the existing products do not meet your requirements.

As a professional aluminum bar factory, Otalum produces our aluminium extrusion bars strictly conforming to standard GB5237.1-2017 with the following alloys, 6005, 6060, 6061, 6063, 6082, etc.

Precise cutting to length and processing services are also available with the fastest lead time.

Types of Aluminium Bars

Aluminium Round Bars

Aluminium extrusion with solid square cross section.

Aluminium Flat Bars

Aluminium extrusion with solid round cross section.

Aluminium Square Bars

Aluminium extrusion with solid flat cross section.

What's the difference between aluminium rod and bar?

Both are made by extrusion. Aluminium rod is circular in shape, while the extruded aluminium bar can have any number of flat sides.

Benefits of Aluminum Bar

Aluminum exhibits an amazing strength-to-weight ratio, making it an excellent material for construction and engineering. It is also very durable and can withstand a lot of force. For example, in automotive applications, aluminum absorbs twice as much collision energy as steel, while making the vehicle lighter and safer.

Another most valuable feature of aluminum bar is their corrosion resistance. The metal naturally forms a protective oxide coating on its surface, making it highly resistant to most types of corrosion. Some alloys can even withstand a long time in the marine environment. In addition, aluminum can be treated in a variety of ways, such as anodizing, painting or painting, to further increase its resistance.

Aluminum is also easy to shape, making it easy to use, and making the metal suitable for a variety of applications. Aluminum bar can be bent and shaped in many ways. Other advantages include high ductility, thermal/electrical conductivity and reflectivity. Aluminum is also very hygienic, so it is very popular in the food, beverage and medical industries.

In addition, aluminum is easy to recycle, which means that it is not only good for the environment, but also cheaper to use because it has much less waste.

Differences between 6061 and 6063 Aluminum Bar

Aluminum Bar 6061

Aluminum bar 6061 can maintain excellent mechanical properties. 6061 is considered a wrought alloy rather than cast alloy, which means it can be extruded, rolled or forged into various shapes. Aluminum bar 6061 is very suitable for applications such as construction products, electrical products, plumbing and entertainment products.

Aluminum Bar 6063

Aluminum Bar 6063 is often referred to as architectural aluminum and is often applied to construction, which is commonly used in railings, window frames, door frames, roofs and so on.

Aluminum Bar Applications

Aluminum bars are produced through an extrusion process and stretched using a die. Aluminum bars can be made into a variety of different shapes and can be used in many different industrial applications due to their light weight, corrosion resistance and excellent workability. Aluminum bar is still the choice of many different metals for industrial applications, including: medical assembly, aircraft manufacturing, structural components, commercial transportation.

There are many extruded aluminum profiles suppliers in China, but we are one of the best choices for you.
