Aluminium rectangular tube—often referred to as box section—is a versatile extruded profile featuring a hollow rectangular shape with two longer sides and two shorter sides. Designed to offer strength while remaining lightweight, it is widely used across structural, architectural, and fabrication applications.

Manufactured from high-quality 6000 series aluminium alloys, rectangular tube provides an excellent balance of mechanical strength and workability. Grades such as 6082 T6 deliver enhanced structural performance, while maintaining good machinability and weldability for ease of fabrication.

The hollow “box” design allows for efficient load distribution and makes the section ideal for frameworks and support structures. Aluminium rectangular tube is easy to cut, drill, and assemble, and can be supplied in a wide range of sizes, wall thicknesses, and lengths—including custom cut options to suit your exact requirements.

Key Features:

• Lightweight with excellent strength-to-weight ratio
• Good machinability, weldability, and fabrication properties
• Hollow section for efficient structural performance
• Available in multiple sizes, thicknesses, and cut-to-size options

Typical Applications:

• Frames, racking, and structural supports
• Balustrades, handrails, and barriers
• Furniture and shopfitting
• Door and window frames
• General engineering and fabrication projects

Ideal for projects requiring a strong, lightweight, and adaptable material, aluminium rectangular tube offers a dependable solution across construction, engineering, and design applications.

NOTE - Aluminium is a durable and corrosion-resistant material; however, when exposed to moisture, air, or other environmental elements, it may naturally oxidise over time. Unless specifically treated or protected, this oxidation can result in a change in surface appearance. This is a normal characteristic of aluminium and does not necessarily affect its structural integrity.
