This aluminum 1145 shim stock is cold rolled, which improves the yield strength, hardness, surface quality, tolerances, and dimensional accuracy of the material. Tempered metals and alloys are either strain hardened (also referred to as cold worked) or heat treated in order to improve their toughness. This aluminum 1145 shim stock is strain hardened to a full-hard H19 temper, which means it has been reduced up to 75% through cold working for a maximum possible improvement in the strength and hardness of the material. A shim is a thin piece of material placed between objects for a variety of uses, including added support, improved leveling, increased insulation, tighter sealing, and better spacing.

The 6063 aluminum alloy, also known as architectural aluminum, is a medium-strength material with excellent corrosion resistance and good weldability. Toughness describes the material's ability to absorb energy before breaking, while hardness (commonly measured as indentation hardness) describes its resistance to permanent surface deformation.

The 6061 aluminum alloy is a general-purpose material that combines good corrosion resistance, strength, machinability, and weldability. Aluminum alloys include elements that modify the aluminum to achieve specific properties such as better weldability or greater strength. Aluminum alloys have temper designations, indicating that the material has undergone a process to achieve certain properties of strength and hardness.

The 6061 aluminum alloy is a general-purpose material that combines good corrosion resistance, strength, machinability, and weldability. The 6061 aluminum has been annealed, a method of heating and cooling a material to modify its properties, such as increasing its formability and toughness or decreasing its strength, after it was shaped. Toughness describes the material's ability to absorb energy before breaking, while hardness (commonly measured as indentation hardness) describes its resistance to permanent surface deformation.

This product is an Aluminum Extrusion for your LED Strip Lights installation .These aluminum channels are not only a great housing for LED strip lights but also act as a heat sink for them as well, which in turn will expand your LEDs lifetime as well as brightness over time. They can be join like a single piece with the extension connector (search B072KMRXSX),You can purchase 2M (6.6ft) LED channels (search B06ZYBLTD1)for longer lighting project.
