Features
  • High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Delivers significant structural stability and stiffness while adding minimal mass to complex assemblies.
  • Al Mg Si 0.5 Alloy (Standard): Most larger dimensions are manufactured from this hardenable alloy, providing the mechanical resistance required for load-bearing professional applications.
  • Superior Workability: Can be precisely sawn with a circular saw or manual hacksaw using non-ferrous blades. These rods are also highly receptive to drilling, milling, and CNC processing.
  • Reliable Bonding: While aluminium is not suitable for standard soldering, these rods provide stable flat surfaces for bonding with two-component epoxies, high-tack cyanoacrylates, and specialised industrial adhesives.

Description

Professional Aluminium Rectangular Rods Precision Geometric Profiles

These high-quality aluminium square rods are an essential material for structural engineering, architectural modelling, and high-fidelity prototyping. Providing a perfect balance of rigidity and lightweight performance, these solid profiles offer clean edges and a smooth metallic finish. Available in a wide variety of dimensions, they are the definitive choice for professionals requiring stable, linear components for both functional frameworks and aesthetic metalwork.

Applications:

  • Architectural Model Making: The primary choice for representing structural beams, floor plate edges, and contemporary facade mullions. The sharp-edged rectangular profile ensures flush joints and a professional, "industrial" finish in high-end site and sectional models.
  • Prototyping & Industrial Design: Ideal for constructing bespoke mounting rails, sliding tracks, and internal chassis for product mock-ups. Its high dimensional accuracy makes it suitable for precision machining and early-stage ergonomic studies.
  • Film & TV Prop Making: A staple for building "hero" props, scientific equipment, and futuristic set pieces. The materials low mass makes it easy for actors to handle large-scale props, while the bright metallic surface responds dynamically to studio lighting.
  • Exhibition & Furniture Design: Frequently utilised in the construction of lightweight display frames, decorative edging, and furniture prototypes where a minimalist, modern aesthetic is required.

Technical Specifications:

  • Material: Technical Grade Aluminium (Typically Al Mg Si 0.5)
  • Shape: Solid Square Rod
  • Length: 1000mm
  • Dimensions: 4.0 x 4.0mm
  • Properties: Non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant, lightweight, rigid
  • Rectangular and square rods are drawn and do not have precise edges as a result
