Alloy: 6262 | Material: Aluminum | Shape: Bar Round | Production Method: Extruded | Across Flats: 0.625 Inches | Item Length: 36 Inches 5/8 inch Aluminum Round Bar 6262-T6511 has superior corrosion resistance, excellent machinability, good strength, and good corrosion resistance. 6262 was specifically designed for applications that require significant machining, the addition of lead and bismuth helps lubricate the cutting tool. 6262 is typically used in camera parts, couplings, marine fittings, decorative hardware, hinge pins, knobs, nuts, oil line fittings, valves, and valve parts. Aluminium is a silvery-white, lightweight metal. It is soft and malleable. Aluminium is used in a huge variety of products including cans, foils, kitchen utensils, window frames, beer kegs and aeroplane parts. It has low density, is non-toxic, has a high thermal conductivity, has excellent corrosion resistance and can be easily cast, machined and formed. It is also non-magnetic and non-sparking. It is the second most malleable metal and the sixth most ductile. It is often used as an alloy because aluminium itself is not particularly strong. Alloys with copper, manganese, magnesium and silicon are lightweight but strong. Aluminium is a good electrical conductor and is often used in electrical transmission lines. It is cheaper than copper and weight for weight is almost twice as good a conductor. UNS A96262, ISO AlMg1SiPb, AA6262-T651 This product weighs 1.09 pounds and meets the following specs: ASTM-B221
