What are Aluminium Billets?

Aluminium billets are semi-finished solid round bars produced through continuous casting. At SteelScope, we specialize in high-purity billets designed specifically for the extrusion process and high-precision machining.

Our billets are prized for their uniform grain structure and excellent surface quality, ensuring optimal performance in the production of architectural profiles, automotive components, and structural aerospace parts.

Supplied in industry-standard grades like 6061, 6063, and 6082, our aluminium stock provides the foundational reliability required for modern industrial manufacturing.

Technical Specification

SteelScope supplies a comprehensive range of aluminium alloys. Our 6000-series billets are homogenized to ensure consistent mechanical properties throughout the material.

  • DIMENSIONS
  • Diameter: 75mm to 90mm
  • Length: 640mm to 740mm

  • AVAILABLE GRADES INCLUDE:
  • 6063: Excellent for intricate extrusions and architectural finishes.
  • 6061: Superior structural strength and corrosion resistance.
  • 6082: High-strength alloy for highly stressed applications.

Packing: Billets are securely bundled with industrial-grade banding and can be supplied on 1500kg +/-10% pallets for safe transit and easy warehouse handling.

Our billets undergo strict homogenization to ensure the alloying elements are evenly distributed. This results in faster extrusion speeds, better surface finish, and consistent response to heat treatment (T4/T6).
