As one of the important basic materials in the manufacturing industry, aluminum alloy has attracted much attention because of its excellent performance and wide range of applications. The aluminum alloy market presents a pattern of coexistence of nine series, each of which has its own unique characteristics and advantages. According to different metal elements, aluminum alloy can be divided into 8 series, and today Shanghai aluminum alloy manufacturers will introduce what series of aluminum alloys there are.
Series: It is a series with the most aluminum content, and the purity can reach 99More than 00%, the texture is very soft, with good elongation and tensile strength. Because it does not contain other metal elements, the production process is relatively simple, and it is relatively cheap, and it is the most commonly used series in the conventional industry.
Series: Among them, the copper element content is the highest, about 3-5%, characterized by high hardness, not often used in conventional industry, belongs to aviation aluminum. 2024 is a typical duralumin alloy in the aluminum, copper and magnesium series, which is a heat-treatable alloy with significantly improved mechanical properties after heat treatment (its T3 state parameters are as follows: tensile strength 470MPa, 0.).2% yield strength 325MPa, elongation: 10%, fatigue strength 105MPa, hardness 120HB), commonly used in aircraft structures, rivets, truck wheels, propeller components and other structural parts.
Series: With manganese as the main component, the manganese content is about 10-1.5%, is a series with good anti-rust function. China's 3000 series production technology is relatively excellent, often used in air conditioners, refrigerators, car bottoms and other humid environments.
Series: It belongs to the series with high silicon content, and the silicon content is about 45-6.0%, with heat resistance, wear resistance, commonly used in building materials, mechanical parts, forging materials, welding materials.
Series: With magnesium as the main component, the magnesium content is about 3-5%, often called aluminum-magnesium alloy. The main characteristics are low density, high tensile strength and high elongation. The weight of aluminum-magnesium alloy is lower than that of other series under the same area, and it is also widely used in conventional industry.
Series: It mainly contains magnesium and silicon, so it concentrates the advantages of 4000 series and 5000 series, and is suitable for products with high requirements for corrosion resistance and oxidation, because of its good usability, easy coating, good processability, and is widely used in the field of profiles.
Series: Mainly contains zinc elements, aluminum-magnesium-zinc-copper alloy is a heat-treatable alloy, belonging to super-hard aluminum alloy, with good wear resistance, but not easy to oxidize. At present, most of them rely on imports, China's production technology still needs to be improved, our technical department after up to 6 months of research and testing, improve the mechanical properties of 7003, to achieve the effect of black oxidation.
Series: Aluminum is not the main ingredient in it, it belongs to other series.
The 8 series of aluminum alloys have their own characteristics and application fields, which can meet different needs. When choosing the right series for your needs, you should consider factors such as the environment in which it will be used, performance requirements, and cost budget.
