5 Details About Aluminum Tread Plates
A tread plate is a form of metal stock with a regular pattern or lines on one side for slip resistance. It is also referred to as a checker plate and diamond plate. The most popular alloy for making aluminum tread plates is 6061, however other options include 5086-H34 and 3003-H231. Aluminum checker plates are perfect for a variety of…
What Defects are Prone to Occur in the Surface Treatment of Aluminum Profiles?
There are three common surface treatment methods for aluminum profiles: anodizing, electrophoretic coating, and powder coating. Anodizing is mainly used for the surface treatment of industrial profiles. Electrophoretic coating and powder coating are mainly used for the surface treatment of architectural profiles and decorative profiles. The three surface treatment methods have their own merits, so what defects are prone to…
What are the Main Points of Aluminum Extrusion Die Design?
To manufacture a good set of aluminum extrusion die, not only good processing equipment and skilled extrusion die manufacturing workers, but also a very important factor is to have a good extrusion die design. The aluminum extrusion die not only needs to fully understand the customer’s requirements but also requires the die designer to have an understanding of the extrusion…
Is an All-aluminum Body 100% Aluminum?
What is an all-aluminum body? The whole aluminum body refers to the body structure mainly made of aluminum alloy. Not only does it allow some non-aluminum parts to existing, but also aluminum appears in the form of an alloy. Aluminum alloy does not refer to an alloy. There are many categories. The international rule uses a four-digit number plus a…
What Factors Should be Considered When Choosing Industrial Aluminum Profiles?

What is the Difference Between Titanium Alloy and Aluminum Alloy?
What is Aluminum Alloy? Aluminum alloy is made of pure aluminum by adding some alloying elements, such as aluminum manganese alloy, aluminum copper alloy, aluminum-copper-magnesium series hard aluminum alloy, aluminum-zinc-magnesium-copper series super-hard aluminum alloy, which can be made into aluminum plates, aluminum coils, aluminum profiles, etc. Aluminum alloy has better physical and mechanical properties than pure aluminum: easy processing, high durability, wide…
5 Processes for Surface Treatment of Aluminum Profiles
With the gradual maturity of aluminum processing technology, some complex surface treatments of aluminum profiles have flourished. We often see the surface treatment processes of aluminum profiles include electrophoresis, anodizing, and fluorocarbon coating spraying. Electrophoresis is the coating of yin and yang to Dianlingdong. Under the action of voltage, the charged paint ions move to the cathode. The aluminum profile surface…
Classification of Aluminum Corrosion
According to the usual estimation method, the direct economic loss caused by corrosion in China accounts for about 3% of GDP (gross national product) every year, and the steel consumed due to corrosion accounts for about 1/3 of the annual output, which accounts for about 1/1 of the total output. 10 is not recyclable. The corrosion resistance of aluminum and…
Intergranular Corrosion of 6000 Series Alloys
Among the wrought aluminum alloys used today, the most widely used is the 6000 series alloys that can be strengthened by heat treatment, which are a class of Al-Mg-Si and Al-Mg-Si-Cu alloys. In 2018, there were 706 common and uncommon alloys registered with The Aluminum Association, Inc., of which 6000 series alloys were the most, with 126, accounting for 18%,…
