Gooseneck bar, which alloy?

[JoeRixon]

Due to budgetary constraints I’ll be CNCing my own gooseneck bars.

Are they 6061-T6, 6082? I saw in the .step it was 6061 but I’d like to be sure.

Furthermore is there a list somewhere that lists the alloys of other parts like the tube frame?

Thanks for any help!

I’ve always wondered about this too, but I inclined to think they are 7075 the hardest alu aloy. I mean it holds our lives up there, we want medium strength of the 6061 or exceptional strength of the 7075?
But I’m curious about the answer…

Is there a way to @ [Pdwhite], (Profile - Pdwhite - OpenPPG Community)Paul Whitehead?

I would not look at the files properties for reference that was just to get the weight of the bars. The bars are 7075-t6. There is not a list of the materials but the frame is 6061-t6.

Thanks again!

I noticed on the listing page it’s called 7071-T6 though?

Yep was just a mistake it has been updated on the site.
