Truly excellent service for such a small job!I needed some small rectangular aluminium sheets made up to use as Tiller Hoods to fix the tiller to the rudder for a Mirror Dinghy! The 1mm thick 200mm x 100mm sheets were just £1.07 each excluding vat and as the postage was 3x that amount I decided to order 10 for future projects! 1st Choice Metals provided a superb very cost effective service and cut the sheets with quick delivery.I am truly delighted with them.

I bought a plate of brass 3mm thick to be used on a drawing board. It was dispatched very quickly and packaged against a wooden board in order that it didn’t get damaged. Brilliant service, thank you.

Aluminium T-section bars are a popular product for structural and architectural applications. Commonly used in construction, they are a structure of solid aluminium with a raised T shape in their centre designed to bear heavy loads.

They are a versatile product with a range of different uses, commonly found in both wrought and cast forms. They can assist with applications such as machining, drilling and tapping, making them a perfect material for assisting in the manufacture of window and door frames, rails, furniture and various other fixings. They are also ideally suited for welding and are used in engineering fabrication workshops and machine shops in the UK today.

Durable and Resistant

Aluminium T-section bars have great finishing properties and excellent resistance to corrosion, adding huge durability to any product. They can therefore be suitable for outdoor applications, specially helpful for domestic uses such ad window and door frames, resisting rust and withstanding elements. Due to their low density they are extremely ductile and exhibit strength to hold moderate pressure.

Considerations for Working with Grade 6082T6

We tend to advise that grade 6082T6 is unsuitable for bending, however, this doesn’t mean that grade 6082T6 can’t be worked with. Workers must ensure the fabricator is prepared for failure and they are suitably kitted out in health and safety attire to avoid any injury,

For example; If a piece of 6082T6 aluminium was placed into a folder or press brake which was then set to achieve a 90 degree bend, there would be a chance that the aluminium would crack and open up along the fold, and eventually as the material is further stretched, it would break off.

Custom Lengths and Precise Fitting

Available from 100mm to 3,000mm, we offer a huge range of lengths of aluminium t-section bars. If you need a more specific measurement, our free metal cutting service can cater for amendments of +/-2mm to ensure precise fitting.
