Aluminum Tube

Characteristics

• Lightweight: The low density of aluminum makes the aluminum tube lightweight, making it easy to transport and install.
• Corrosion resistance: In most environments, aluminum has good corrosion resistance and is not easy to rust.
• Good thermal conductivity: Aluminum tubes have good thermal conductivity and are suitable for situations that require heat dissipation or exchange.
• Easy to process: It can be processed through extrusion, bending, welding, and other methods to meet different usage needs.

Aesthetics: The surface of aluminum pipes can be treated with various methods, such as anodizing, spraying, etc., to give them a better appearance.

Production process

There are mainly extrusion method and welding method. The extrusion method is to heat the aluminum ingot and extrude it into a tube shape through a mold; The welding method involves rolling aluminum plates into tubes and then welding them together.

Application Fields

• In the field of architecture: used for decoration, railings, handrails, etc. in building structures, as well as for water supply and drainage pipelines and HVAC systems.
• Transportation: Used in vehicles such as cars, trains, and airplanes to make components such as oil pipes, air pipes, radiators, etc.
• Electronic appliances: can be used to make protective tubes, heat sinks, etc. for wires and cables.
• Industrial field: Used for transporting various liquids and gases in industries such as chemical, petroleum, and food.

Selection precautions

• Material and specifications: Choose the appropriate aluminum material and aluminum tube specifications according to the usage needs, including outer diameter, wall thickness, length, etc.
• Surface quality: Check whether the aluminum tube surface is smooth, free of cracks, scratches, oxidation and other defects.
• Pressure resistance: If used in pressure bearing situations, aluminum tubes with the required pressure resistance should be selected.
• Manufacturer: Choose a reputable and reliable manufacturer to ensure product quality and after-sales service.
