Characteristics and main uses of aluminum profiles

Aluminum profiles are classified by use: Aluminum profiles for construction: architectural aluminum profiles mainly include aluminum profiles for doors and windows and aluminum profiles for curtain walls;
Radiator aluminum profile: mainly used for heat dissipation of various power electronic equipment, LED lighting, and computer digital products.
General industrial aluminum profile refers to:
Mainly used in industrial production and manufacturing, such as assembly line conveyor belts, hoists, glue dispensers, testing equipment, shelves, etc., electronic machinery industry and clean rooms, etc.

Aluminum profiles for auto parts: Mainly used for auto parts, connectors, etc. Furniture aluminum profiles are mainly used for furniture decoration frames, table and chair supports, etc.
Solar photovoltaic profiles include: Solar aluminum frame, solar photovoltaic bracket, solar photovoltaic tile fasteners, etc.
Aluminum alloy profiles for rail vehicle structure: Mainly used in rail vehicle body manufacturing. Aluminum alloy profiles have the characteristics of light weight, good formability, high strength, corrosion resistance, and recyclability. In recent years, aluminum and aluminum alloys have been widely used in the field of rail vehicles.

Aluminum profile characteristics

Corrosion resistance of aluminum profile
The density of aluminum profile is only 2.7g/cm3, which is about 1/3 of the density of steel, copper or brass (7.83g/cm3, 8.93g/cm3, respectively). In most environmental conditions, including air, water (or salt water), petrochemicals and many chemical systems, aluminum can show excellent corrosion resistance.

Good conductivity
Aluminum profile is often selected because of its excellent electrical conductivity. On the basis of equal weight, the conductivity of aluminum profile is close to 1/2 of copper.


High thermal conductivity
The thermal conductivity of aluminum alloy is about 50-60% of copper. This is beneficial to the manufacture of heat exchangers, evaporators, heating appliances, cooking utensils, and automobile cylinder heads and radiators.

Non-ferromagnetic
Aluminum profiles are non-ferromagnetic, which is an important feature for the electrical and electronic industries. Aluminum profiles are not spontaneously combustible, which is important for applications involving handling or contact with flammable and explosive materials.

Machinability
The workability of the aluminum profile is excellent. In various deformed aluminum alloys and cast aluminum alloys, as well as in the various states that these alloys have after being produced, the machining characteristics change considerably, which requires special machine tools or technology.


Formability
The specific tensile strength, yield strength, ductility and corresponding work hardening rate dominate the change in allowable deformation.

Recyclability
Aluminum has extremely high recyclability, and the characteristics of recycled aluminum are almost indistinguishable from primary aluminum.
