Hexagonal rods overview
Aluminum hexagonal bars are essential material in numerous industrial and craft applications. These rods are characterized by their high strength, lightness and good to very good Corrosion resistance (depending on material). They are particularly popular in areas that require precision and versatility, such as mechanical engineering, automotive and construction.
Unique selling points
-
High precision: The geometric shape of the hex bars allows for precise machining and adjustment, making them ideal for applications where exact dimensions and angles are critical.
-
Light and stable: Aluminum hex bars offer an excellent strength to weight ratio. They are significantly lighter than steel bars, making them easier to transport and install without compromising structural integrity.
-
Corrosion resistance: Thanks to the natural oxide layer on aluminum, these rods are corrosion-resistant depending on the material. This makes them ideal for use in damp or chemically contaminated environments.
-
Versatility: Aluminum hex bars are available in various dimensions and alloys, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. They can also be polished or anodized to further improve corrosion resistance and aesthetics.
