Where to find Aluminum Tube - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

I'm looking for some 1.5" x 3" x 1/8" wall aluminum tube. I'd prefer 6061 or 7075, but 2024 would work ok, too.

Looking at all my standard places (McMaster, MSC, onlinemetals), I only see this size in 6063. Does anyone know where to get this in other alloys?

Thanks in advance!

I am presuming the 1.5 is the diameter, but here is a link that has a good selection, no minimum order. I think they also cut it at no charge.

24" section is $13. + $11 shipping

ooh, so close, ken! They've got round and square in 6061, but they only have the rectangular sections in 6063! Thanks for the link, though. I'll have to add it to my list.
