    Hi Chris

    you can get 6061 plate from Action Alum, they can cut the plate to the size you require.

    Action have branches in Bayswater Dandenong and Thomastown

    I hope this helps

    Hi Chris / Anyone else looking for Ali flat bars,

    If you can't source them locally you can import them from:
    A) China - This is an obvious choice, and is obviously a little risky due to quality and communication issues.
    B) South Africa - SA has some of the highest quality Ali you can find globally. The terrible exchange rate also makes importing from SA a viable option even if you are in Australia.

    I work for a company called Aluminium Trading https://www.aluminiumtrading.co.za and we supply these exact products, see here: https://www.aluminiumtrading.co.za/a...ium-flat-bars/
    We buy these products from the mill and resell in lower sizes etc. This is not a sales pitch, you do not have to buy this from the company I work for (we dont actually sell anything cross border), I am merely trying to add value here. If anyone is interested in Ali from SA just reply here or DM me and I can point you in the right direction for quality South African products depending on what you are looking for and what quantity.

    Regards,
    Shaytorn

    Aluminium Express in Bayswater got a pretty good stock of a few grades cheaper also.
