Aluminum Profiles-1

Product Details

1: Corrosion resistance

The aluminum profile has a density of only 2.7g/cm3, which is about one-third that of steel, copper or brass (7.83g/ cm3 and 8.93g/ cm3 respectively). Aluminum exhibits excellent corrosion resistance under most environmental conditions, including in air, water (or brine), petroleum chemistry, and many chemical systems.

2: the electrical conductivity

Aluminum profiles are often chosen because of their excellent electrical conductivity. On the basis of equal weight, the conductivity of aluminum is nearly half that of copper.

3: Thermal conductivity

Aluminum alloys have a thermal conductivity of about 50-60 percent of copper, which is good for making heat exchangers, evaporators, heating appliances, cooking utensils, and automobile cylinder heads and radiators.

4: Non-ferromagnetism

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

5: Machinability

The machinability of aluminum profiles is excellent. In various deformed and cast aluminum alloys, as well as in the various states in which these alloys are produced, the machining characteristics vary considerably, requiring special machine tools or techniques.
