Metal Hexagonal Bars
Hex bars have six sides, providing excellent strength and suitability for applications requiring precision machining, such as in the automotive and aerospace industries. Their symmetrical, flat-sided geometry is specifically engineered for easy gripping by wrenches, collets, and automated CNC tooling.
Available in a comprehensive range of metallurgical grades—from lightweight titanium for aerospace to high-speed steels for tooling—our hexagonal bars ensure flawless performance, rapid machining times, and minimal material waste during the manufacturing of high-pressure fittings and fasteners.
