How much would a 2"x2"x3' aluminum angle iron cost??

Question

I have a funbox for skateboarding and i am going to put coping on it for grinding. I need to know how much a 2"by2"by3' piece would cost.

Answer 1

Both Lowe's and Home Depot sell a limited selection of aluminum and steel angle in various sizes and lengths. If either one has anything as big as 2" x 2", they will have it in either 3' or 4' lengths. I am guessing that the price will be somewhere around $20.00 because aluminum is kind of pricey. Look for it in the hardware section of either store.

Good luck with your project.

Answer 3

contrary to the other answers, for that amount of heat you need something thicker than 1/16 inch, that won't allow enough heat to flow from the hot spot (the IC) to the rest of the aluminum. I suspect when the heat sink gets hot, it's only near the IC, and cooler elsewhere. You need 1/4 inch thick, perhaps 1/2" But you also need a lot of surface area, and possibly fans. .

Answer 4

bypass the aluminum and get steel, it will be a lot cheaper.
