Sheet aluminum for sale has a thickness ranging from 0.2mm to 3mm and a width below 600mm. Due to its lightweight and thin material, it is often used in the production of aircraft bodies.
Advantages of sheet aluminum for sale:
1. Lightweight and high strength.
2. Good processing performance, excellent ductility, and easy shaping.
3. Good weather resistance and corrosion resistance.
4. Strong plasticity, can be easily dyed and electroplated with various surface treatment technologies.
5. Good conductivity and thermal conductivity.
Applications of sheet aluminum for sale:
1. Automotive body manufacturing:
In the field of automotive body manufacturing, the application includes welding and riveting processes for stamping and sheet metal parts, as well as coating processes. These processes involve the participation of aluminum sheet. Among them, the blanking and rolling processing technologies require high requirements for the sheet (especially for thick-walled tubes) as it is necessary to ensure the dimensional accuracy and flatness of the products. The coating process mainly focuses on the adhesion and curing of coatings for spray or powder coating products.
2. Aerospace industry:
In the aerospace industry, aluminum alloy sheets are mainly used in the production of aircraft body structure frames (such as cabin frame) and the production of some parts (such as wing skins). High-strength composite materials used in spacecraft are also mostly composed of aluminum alloy sheets as the base material for composites (e.g. the carbon fiber reinforced plastic used in the Boeing 787 aircraft produced by Boeing is a composite metal base composite material made from 7075 alloy steel + 6061 alloy steel).
3. Architectural curtain wall industry:
The decorative materials in the architectural curtain wall industry mainly consist of two types: glass panels and stone panels. The main raw materials for these decorative materials are sheet aluminum for sale or specially processed aluminum alloy profiles. For example, the commonly used single-layer fluorocarbon painted oxide film with a thickness of more than 20μm can meet the requirements of architectural decoration.
4. Electronics and electrical industry:
The enclosures used in the electronics and electrical industry are usually composed of various types of metal materials, including stainless steel, magnesium alloy, and titanium alloy materials, etc. These metal materials have high hardness and strong impact resistance, but they are expensive and prone to rust, affecting aesthetics and service life (such as the copper heat sink on a computer chassis).
5. Mechanical components industry:
The manufacturing of large-scale mechanical equipment in the machinery manufacturing industry requires a large amount of high-strength steel as one of the materials for supporting components (such as the use of 45# high-quality cold-rolled steel with high chromium content for the production of machine tool spindle bearings).
6. Furniture industry:
Various wooden furniture used in home life is also made of metal materials as the main ingredient (including high-end solid wood furniture).
7. Medical equipment industry:
High-strength medical-grade stainless steel instruments are frequently used in medical devices.
