Aluminum round tubing is a strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant material used in a wide range of industrial and fabrication settings. Its combination of strength and low weight makes it ideal for projects that require durability without adding unnecessary bulk.
Testrite Aluminum supplies aluminum round tubing for professional fabricators, manufacturers, and builders who prefer to cut and assemble their own structures. These are raw or pre-finished materials, designed for companies that want complete control over their fabrication process.
We offer aluminum round tubing as both extruded tubing as well as drawn tubing. Drawn tubing has tight dimensional tolerances on OD, wall, and ovality, and is available in several finishes, including mill finish (raw aluminum), silver anodized, and black anodized. These finishes provide benefits for both functional and aesthetic applications. In quantity of 25+ we can also quote powder coat finishing performed on our in house, conveyor belt line.
We offer instant volume pricing for production scale orders. This makes it easy for businesses to purchase the exact quantities they need for larger projects while keeping costs predictable. Whether you’re fabricating display systems, architectural elements, or industrial components. Testrite Aluminum round tubing provides the reliability and precision professionals depend on.

Each product listing includes specifications, material details, and specification drawings to help engineers and fabricators confidently integrate tubing into their designs.
Thin-Wall Aluminum Round Tubing Options
Thin-wall aluminum round tubing is essential for projects that require reduced weight without sacrificing structural performance. These tubes are frequently used in telescoping systems, lightweight frames, signage supports, and retail display components.
Testrite Aluminum stocks several thin-wall options that are engineered for precision and compatibility. We stock .038" Wall Aluminum tubing in 1/8" increments, from 3/8" diameter up to 1.5" Diameter.
The next step up is the 0.049" Aluminum Tubing, which is available in 3/4", 7/8", 1", and 1-1/4".
For those needing something heavier duty, our .058" Aluminum Tubes start at 3/4" diameter and run all the way up to 2" diameter in 1/8" increments.
For example, our 7/8" OD x .049" Wall Round Tubing is specifically designed to telescope smoothly into larger tubing sizes, making it ideal for adjustable or collapsible structures. This size is popular in trade show displays, photo backdrops, and portable assemblies.
Our 1" OD x.049" Wall Tubing is another commonly used thin-wall option. It strikes the right balance between lightweight construction and rigidity, making it a reliable choice for both static and dynamic systems. As an extruded shape it's less expensive, but it's not recommended for telescoping.
These thin-wall tubes are available in finishes such as silver anodized and black anodized, giving fabricators both function and aesthetic flexibility. Because Testrite offers aluminum tubing cut to length, professionals can source exactly the material they need, minimizing waste and simplifying the fabrication process.
Telescoping-Compatible Tubing Solutions
For builds that require adjustable height uprights, collapsible structures, or modular assembly, telescoping-compatible tubing is a critical component. At Testrite Aluminum, we offer round tubing specifically designed to telescope and nest cleanly and securely within each other, eliminating the need for custom machining or trial-and-error fitting.
Our 7/8" OD x.049" Wall Telescopic-Compatible Tubing is part of a system that allows different diameters to nest inside one another. This is ideal for building adjustable stands, telescoping poles, signage structures, and any framework that benefits from portability or modularity.
You can explore our complete telescoping-compatible tubing collection to find additional sizes that work together. These options are fabricated to tight tolerances and stocked in finishes suitable for both interior and exterior use.
Whether you’re developing a prototype or scaling up a production line, our telescoping tubing supports repeatable performance and smooth operation. Combined with our fast domestic shipping and volume pricing, Testrite Aluminum makes it easy to source tubing that aligns with your engineering and production standards.
Ordering Aluminum Tubing Cut to Length
For increased production efficiency and reduced material handling, many professionals seek aluminum tubing cut to length. While Testrite Aluminum sells full-length extrusions, we make it easy for companies to cut and fabricate tubing to their exact needs with in-house tools.
We provide detailed specifications for each product, allowing you to confidently plan cuts before materials arrive. For example, our 1.5" OD x .055" Wall Round Tubing is ideal for projects that require both rigidity and length customization, while thinner options like the 1" OD x.049" Wall Round Tubing is perfect for lighter-weight structures.
Because we serve professionals, we try to provide the critical specifications, along with volume pricing, to make buying aluminum tubes from Testrite Aluminum an easy decision. When fabricating yourself, we encourage customers to use appropriate cutting and safety equipment for the work you're doing.
For reference, our round tubing catalog includes multiple diameters and wall thicknesses suited for different cutting needs. With domestic inventory and fast order fulfillment, Testrite helps keep your fabrication workflow moving smoothly.
How to Buy Aluminum Round Tubing in Bulk
Testrite Aluminum is structured to support professional buyers who require materials in large quantities. Our website provides volume pricing directly on each product page, giving you immediate cost visibility without requiring a custom quote. This allows engineers, fabricators, and manufacturers to plan efficiently and place orders with confidence.
Whether you are purchasing 1" OD tubing, 3/4" aluminum tubing, or thicker-wall extrusions for heavy-duty applications, we maintain stocked inventory across popular sizes. This helps minimize lead times and ensures a reliable supply for production teams, thereby enhancing overall efficiency.
Each tubing product includes full specifications such as finish, outer diameter, and wall thickness. For example, our 1.022" OD x .136" Wall 6063-T6 Tubing is commonly selected for CNC machining and structural builds that demand a higher load-bearing profile.
For large-scale jobs, customers often choose to bundle compatible sizes, such as telescoping sets, to streamline fabrication. Testrite’s U.S.-based fulfillment model supports fast and accurate shipping, making us a dependable aluminum round tubing supplier for bulk orders. You can also pair our round aluminum tubing with compatible accessories

Choosing the Right Aluminum Round Tubing for Your Project
Selecting the right aluminum round tubing depends on multiple factors, including structural strength, weight limitations, compatibility with other tubing sizes, and your in-house fabrication capabilities.
For modular or adjustable builds, telescoping-compatible tubing is often the best choice. Our 7/8" OD x.049" Wall Tubing fits smoothly into larger sizes and is commonly used for portable displays, adjustable poles, and collapsible frames.
If the project demands rigidity and strength over adjustability, consider thicker-wall options. The 1.5" OD x.055" Wall Round Tubing is well-suited for load-bearing applications and more permanent structural builds.
For precision machining or CNC-based fabrication, materials like the 1.022" OD x.136" Wall 6063-T6 Tubing offers excellent strength and durability. The 6063-T6 alloy is known for its performance in high-load environments and technical applications.
To find the right size quickly, explore our categorized collections such as 1” aluminum tubing or 3/4” aluminum tubing. Each product page includes detailed specifications, finishes, and downloadable CAD files to support your planning process.
