The aluminum grades that we possess demonstrate a wide variation of properties that are dependent on their alloying elements and have undergone heat-treated conditions.

Aluminum Grades

Aluminum grades exhibit ease of fabrication, good appearance, good corrosion resistance, high fracture toughness, good weldability, and high strength-to-weight ratio.

Each aluminum grade is characterized by its excellent mechanical and chemical properties and the elements found in its composition.

The selection of aluminum mainly depends on the intentions and applications necessary to achieve excellent working conditions. The intended application allows manufacturers and other material users to rank the characteristics and properties of each aluminum grade from least to the most important.

This somehow helps in narrowing down the lists of aluminum grades and their suitability in varying applications and treated conditions. There are important factors to consider in the selection of aluminum bar stock metal grades including weldability, workability, machinability, corrosion resistance, heat treating, and strength. These factors may greatly affect the performance of each aluminum grade when used.

Why Choose Aluminum Rod?

Aluminum is one of the most common metals used in construction and manufacturing. It has a number of advantages over other metals that make it attractive to use as a construction material.

The aluminum rod is another type of aluminum bar stock manufactured in a cylindrical shape. The rod can be cut into smaller pieces or used as it is.

One advantage of aluminum is its high strength-to-weight ratio. This allows it to be used in products that are more durable and lighter than steel or other metals. It also has a relatively low cost, which makes it affordable for many industries.

An aluminum rod is an aluminum bar stock with round ends at both ends and can be bought in different diameters, lengths, and thicknesses. Aluminum round bar stock is similar to an aluminum rod, but instead of being round at both ends, it has square ends on each end of the bar stock. On the other hand, the aluminum round stock is an aluminum bar stock with rectangular edges on each end,

We’ve managed to expand our capabilities in the manufacturing of aluminum steel bars in rounds, flats, and squares at O’Hare Precision Metal.

Stated below are the selections of aluminum grades that we have in store for you:

aluminum round stock

Our aluminum round bar stock has been widely used in a lot of heavy-duty structures and marine environments.

Aluminum Round Bars

As an aluminum round bar supplier, we at O’Hare Precision Metals have made it our goal to provide our clients with only the best aluminum round bars throughout local and global locations.

Our aluminum bar stock metal is highly resistant to corrosive environments and suited for severe components and structures like machine parts, electrical fittings, worm gears, marine fittings, appliance fittings, fixtures, and truck components. 

A lot of industries have recognized that investing in a metal such as this comes with so many great advantages that you can make use of.

Aluminum round bars can also be made out of different aluminum grades and these bars may have a particular application or use, depending on the strength, and other mechanical properties exhibited by each aluminum grade. Some aluminum grades can easily be machined and welded into bars.

Aluminum is a versatile metal. It is used in various products like airplanes, cars, boats, and so on. Aluminum bars are used for the production of aluminum round stock. The aluminum round bar stock is a type of aluminum bar stock that is manufactured in a round shape.

Aluminum is an important metal used in many industries, including the aerospace, automotive, construction, packaging, and electronics industries. Aluminum’s low density and ability to be easily machined makes it ideal for use in these industries. Also, aluminum is one of the most widely used metals in the world. It has been used since ancient times, and its usage is still increasing today due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion.

Aluminum can be found in different forms like aluminum bar stock, aluminum rod, and aluminum round bar stock. These forms are then further processed into aluminum round stock by rolling or forging it.

Within the annealed state, aluminum can allow standard methods to be used for cutting, drilling, stamping, deep drawing, bending, and tapping the material. Luckily, our professional operators are experienced in all phases of machining operations, that’s how they are able to help us produce quality aluminum round bars for a multitude of applications in varied industries from small to large sectors.

We are a precision grinding services provider that makes it a habit to stock up on aluminum round bars in varying sizes and finishes with tight tolerances and precision in diameter.
