This thin wall hex shape is produced in 6063-T5 aluminum alloy for construction of a larger honeycomb panel. The profile is produced as a hex for strength and pattern assembly. It is extruded at a nominal .030" wall thickness for weight savings, and approximately 1.25" cross sectional flat-to-flat. These hex tubes are then cut into short pieces, approximately 1" long and assembled into a honeycomb panel. The honeycomb skeleton is the foundation on which a carbon fiber panel is built up for an extremely light weight and high strength aeronautical application. Thermoprene is confident we can help with any of your aluminum extrusion needs.
