In this article, let Baowu show you what aluminum profiles are.

First of all, aluminum profiles refer to aluminum alloy profiles. Has many features because it is widely required by people.

• Corrosion resistance: The density of aluminum profiles is only 2.7g/cm3, which is about 1/3 of the density of steel, copper or brass. Aluminum exhibits excellent corrosion resistance under most environmental conditions, including air, water, petrochemicals, and many chemical systems;

• Conductivity: Aluminum profiles are often chosen due to their excellent conductivity. On the basis of equal weight, the conductivity of aluminum is nearly 1/2 that of copper;

• Thermal conductivity: The thermal conductivity of aluminum alloys is about 50-60% of that of copper, which is beneficial for the manufacture of heat exchangers, evaporators, heating appliances, cooking utensils, as well as cylinder heads and radiators for automobiles;

• Non-ferromagnetic: Aluminum profiles are non-ferromagnetic, which is an important property for the electrical and electronic industries. Aluminum profiles are not self-igniting, which is important for applications involving handling or contact with flammable and explosive materials;

• Formability: The specified tensile strength, yield strength, ductility and corresponding work hardening rate govern the variation in allowable deformation.

Aluminum profiles include 1024, 2011, 6063, 6061, 6082, 7075 and other alloy grade aluminum profiles, of which 6 series are the most common. The difference between different grades is that the ratio of various metal components is different. Except for the commonly used door and window aluminum profiles such as 60 series, 70 series, 80 series, 90 series, curtain wall series and other architectural aluminum profiles, industrial aluminum profiles are not clearly defined. Different models, most of the production plants are processed according to the actual drawings of customers.

Aluminum profiles can be divided into 5 categories according to their uses:

• Architectural aluminum profiles are divided into two types: doors and windows and curtain walls;

• Radiator aluminum profile;

• General industrial aluminum profiles: mainly used for industrial production and manufacturing, such as automated machinery and equipment, the skeleton of the cover, and the company's customized mold opening according to their own mechanical equipment requirements, such as assembly line conveyor belts, hoists, glue dispensers, testing equipment , shelves, etc., mostly used in the electronic machinery industry and clean rooms;

• Aluminum alloy profiles for rail vehicle structures: mainly used in the manufacture of rail vehicle bodies;

• Mounted aluminum profiles, made into aluminum alloy picture frames, mounted various exhibitions and decorative paintings.

The above are the characteristics and uses of aluminum profiles. If you want to know more, please feel free to pay attention to Baowu.
