6000 Series Aluminum Coil

6000 series aluminum alloy coil is represented by 6061, which is mostly composed of silicon and magnesium atoms. 6061 aluminum coil is a cold-treated aluminum forging product which is appropriate for applications needing a high oxidation and corrosion resistance level. It possesses great interface properties, facile coating, and good workability, in addition to good serviceability. It can be applied to aircraft joints and low-pressure armaments. It can counteract the negative effects of iron due to its particular content of manganese and chromium. Occasionally, a small amount of copper or zinc is added to boost the alloy's strength without considerably lowering its corrosion resistance. Excellent interface properties, ease of coating, high strength, outstanding serviceability, and strong corrosion resistance are among the general qualities of 6000 aluminum coils.

Aluminum 6062 is a wrought aluminum alloy featuring magnesium silicide. It responds to heat treatment to age-harden it. This grade can be used in the manufacture of submarines because of its corrosion- resistance in fresh and saltwater.

Characteristics of Aluminum Coil

Non-corrosive:

Even in industrial environments where other metals are frequently corroded, aluminum is extremely resistant to weathering and corrosion. Several acids won't cause it to corrode. Aluminum naturally generates a thin but effective oxide layer that inhibits further oxidation, giving it exceptional corrosion resistance. As a result, objects made from aluminum oxide are nearly impermeable to many corrosive substances.

Easily machined and cast:

Since it melts more readily than steel, aluminum coil is more pliable and simpler to pour into molds. Aluminum castings are also less stiff than steel, making them easier to work with while steel castings need a lot more effort. It is one of the most machinable metals available, making processing time cost-effective.

Lightweight yet durable:

Aluminum coil is lightweight and portable since it has a low density. This makes it the chosen metal for use in the construction of airplanes. It may be considered as being even more durable since it can be recycled.

Advantages of Aluminum Coil:

· Aluminum coil has a commercial benefit because it is far less expensive than other metals like copper.

· Aluminum coil is a good electrical and thermal conductor. Because of these qualities, it is often found in appliances and wiring.

· Aluminum coil is more flexible than steel.

· Aluminum coil is relatively simple to make.

· There are numerous alloys, widths, and temper criteria for coiled aluminum. Its surface finish can also be specified to order.

· The fact that aluminum coils are recyclable is an additional benefit. Aluminum is expensive to extract from its ore, making recycled aluminum far more affordable than raw aluminum.

· The advantages of aluminum for the environment are clear because of aluminum’s recyclability. As a result, coiled aluminum is a sustainable material.

· Aluminum coil is perfect for many applications, ranging from its use as coating for decoration to its frequent use in automotive industries, due to its great corrosion-resistance and strength.

· Aluminum coils are frequently utilized in the construction of most modes of transportation, including cars.

· Aluminum coil is perfect for numerous industrial tasks thanks to its lightweight and sturdy structure.
