Description
The Premium Aluminium Tube 31.8 mm × 4.8 mm (1-1/4″ × 3/16″ wall thickness) is a heavy-duty alloy profile engineered for demanding fabrication and industrial applications. Made from high-quality 6063-T6 aluminium, it combines exceptional strength, rigidity, and corrosion resistance while remaining lighter and easier to handle than steel.
Its thick 4.8 mm wall provides superior load-bearing capacity, making it the perfect choice for construction frameworks, machinery components, industrial supports, and structural assemblies. With a smooth finish and excellent machinability, this aluminium tube is designed for both functional strength and professional appearance.
