Aluminum Round Tube 2024-T3 offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, high fatigue resistance, and average machinability. The addition of copper to this alloy makes 2024 one of the strongest aluminum alloys, but it also is more susceptible to corrosion than most other aluminum alloys. 2024 is typically used in aerospace applications, clock parts, computer parts, hydraulic parts, bolts, valves, nuts, pistons, and gears.
Tube is designed to act as structural support, whereas Pipe is designed to carry liquid/gas/material from one place to another.

Mechanical Properties
Chemistry Information : 2024 Aluminum
This aluminum round tube is made from 2024-T3 alloy, known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and high fatigue resistance. It has a tensile strength of 70 ksi and a yield strength of 50 ksi, with average machinability rated at 70. The alloy contains copper which enhances strength but makes it more susceptible to corrosion.
Yes, the tube is available in various cut lengths ranging from 12 inches up to 96 inches. Custom cuts are processed at the warehouse, ensuring you can order the exact length needed for your project.
Absolutely. The 2024-T3 alloy is commonly used in aerospace applications due to its high strength and fatigue resistance. This tube is designed primarily for structural support rather than fluid transport.
Yes, the product complies with RoHS and REACH standards, ensuring it meets environmental and safety regulations. Additionally, material test reports (MTR) are available for quality assurance.
The shipping weight varies by length, starting at 0.6 lb for a 12-inch piece up to 4.8 lb for a 96-inch piece. All length variants are currently in stock and ready to ship from the warehouse.
