Dear All,
I Need 2.5" x 5" x .375 ARCHITECTURAL Aluminum Angle.The largest I could find was 4" x 4" x .25. I need an Architectural (all orthagonal, no draft angles) angle and I would like to buy a one foot length. McMaster-Carr, Grainger were no help and a google search revealed nothing larger than 4" x 4". An old steel book had a piece that was 2.5x5" but it was only 1/8" thick.
I imagine this is an extruding die size limitation but not sure.
I spent about an hour looking and even checked an old smallparts.com amazon website with no luck. Thoughts?
What we are doing now is milling the inside surfaces of a regular extruded aluminum angle square. Its a bit of a pain. Finding THICK architectural aluminum extrusions is a bit tough, and probably for a good reason. Thanks in advance!
