6 FT Aluminum Angle Randall – 2x2x1/8 L-Shaped Metal

Description

Product Overview

The 6 ft aluminum angle from Randall Manufacturing is engineered from high‑grade 6063‑T6 alloy, a material celebrated for its excellent strength‑to‑weight ratio, superior corrosion resistance, and exceptional machinability. Each piece measures precisely 2 inches by 2 inches with a thickness of 1/8 inch, delivering a clean, straight‑edged L‑shaped profile that is both robust and lightweight. The satin‑mill finish provides a subtle, non‑reflective surface that resists scratches and wear, making the angle suitable for a wide range of applications, from structural framing to decorative projects. With a total length of six feet, the angle offers ample reach for large‑scale builds while remaining easy to handle, transport, and store. Manufactured in the United States, this product adheres to strict quality‑control standards, ensuring consistent dimensional accuracy and reliable performance across every unit.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the 6 ft aluminum angle excels in both indoor and outdoor environments. In residential settings, it serves as a sturdy reinforcement for corners of shelving units, workbenches, and cabinetry, providing added rigidity without adding excessive weight. For commercial and industrial applications, the angle is ideal for constructing frames for equipment racks, support structures for lighting fixtures, and custom brackets for machinery. Its lightweight nature makes it a favorite among DIY enthusiasts who need a material that can be easily cut, drilled, and bent on site. The alloy’s resistance to moisture and chemicals ensures that the angle will not rust or degrade when exposed to harsh weather, making it a reliable choice for outdoor projects such as garden trellises, patio awnings, and marine applications. Whether you are a professional fabricator, a hobbyist woodworker, or a contractor seeking a dependable component for structural reinforcement, this aluminum angle meets the demands of a broad audience.

Why Choose Us

Randall Manufacturing has a long history of producing high‑quality metal components, and this 6 ft aluminum angle is no exception. Our commitment to using only premium 6063‑T6 alloy means that each angle delivers consistent mechanical properties, including high tensile strength and excellent fatigue resistance. The manufacturing process includes precision extrusion, followed by a controlled heat‑treatment cycle that enhances the material’s hardness while preserving its ductility. This results in a product that can withstand repeated loading and unloading cycles without deformation. Additionally, every batch undergoes rigorous inspection for dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and material composition, ensuring that you receive a product that meets or exceeds industry standards. Our customer support team is available to answer technical questions, provide cutting and welding recommendations, and assist with any post‑purchase concerns, reinforcing our dedication to customer satisfaction and long‑term reliability.

Beyond material quality, the design of the angle incorporates thoughtful features that simplify fabrication.

FAQ

Can this aluminum angle be welded?

Yes, the 6063‑T6 alloy is well‑suited for TIG and MIG welding. For best results, clean the surface of any oxidation, use appropriate filler material, and follow standard welding procedures to maintain the material’s strength.

What cutting tools are recommended?

Standard hacksaws, metal‑cutting bandsaws, or a circular saw with a non‑ferrous metal blade can be used. For precise cuts, a miter saw with a fine‑tooth blade or a CNC plasma cutter will provide clean edges and reduce post‑cut finishing work.

Is the angle suitable for outdoor use?

Absolutely. The 6063‑T6 alloy’s natural corrosion resistance, combined with the satin‑mill finish, makes the angle durable in outdoor conditions, including exposure to rain, humidity, and mild chemicals.

How many angles come in one package?

Each package contains a single 6 ft length of aluminum angle, identified by the part number MF‑668. Additional quantities can be ordered in bulk for larger projects.

Can the angle be painted?

Yes, the surface can be primed and painted with appropriate metal‑compatible paints. Ensure the surface is clean and free of oils before applying primer for optimal adhesion.
