    Coefficient of Thermal Expansion for Aluminum

    I am working with 6061-T6 Aluminum seamless tube and 303 Stainless for the journals. I looked in the Machinery's Handbook, but didn't see any info. on the Coefficient of Expansion for Aluminum. There was info for other materials, but not Aluminum. Do you have any specifics to find it.
