Aluminum rod product classification

According to the different metal elements contained in aluminum rods, aluminum rods can be roughly divided into 8 categories, that is, can be divided into 9 series:
I. 1000 series aluminum rod represents 1050, 1060 and 1100 series. Among all the series, series 1000 has the most aluminum content. Purity can reach more than 99.00%. Because it does not contain other technical elements, the production process is relatively simple and the price is relatively cheap. It is the most commonly used series in conventional industry at present. Most of the 1050 and 1060 series are in circulation in the market. 1000 series aluminum rod according to the last two Arabic digits to determine the minimum aluminum content of this series, such as 1050 series last two Arabic digits 50, according to the international brand naming principle, aluminum content must reach more than 99.5% of the qualified product. China's aluminum alloy technical standard (gB/T3880-2006) also clearly stipulates that the aluminum content of 1050 can reach 99.5%. By the same token, the 1060 series aluminum rod must contain more than 99.6 percent aluminum.
Two, 2000 series aluminum rod on behalf of 2A16 (LY16), 2A02 (LY6). 2000 series aluminum rod is characterized by high hardness, among which the highest content of copper element, about 3-5%. 2000 series aluminum rod belongs to aviation aluminum material, which is not often used in conventional industry.
2024 is a typical duralumin in the aluminum-copper-magnesium system. It is a heat-treatable alloy with high strength, easy processing, easy turning and general corrosion resistance.
After heat treatment (T3, T4, T351), the mechanical properties of 2024 aluminum rod are significantly improved, and the T3 state parameters are as follows: tensile strength 470MPa, yield strength 0.2% 325MPa, elongation 10%, fatigue strength 105MPa, hardness 120HB.
2024 Aluminum rod main uses: aircraft structure, rivets, truck hub, propeller assembly and other structural parts
3. 3000 series aluminum rod represents 3003 and 3A21. The production technology of Chinese 3000 series aluminum rod is excellent. 3000 series aluminum rod is made of manganese element as the main component. Content between 1.0-1.5, it is a series with good anti-rust function.
4. 4000 series aluminum rod represents 4A01 4000 series aluminum rod belongs to the series with higher silicon content. The silicon content is usually between 4.5 and 6.0%. It belongs to building materials, mechanical parts, forging materials, welding materials; Low melting point, good corrosion resistance, product description: with heat resistance, wear resistance
V. 5000 series aluminum rod represents 5052, 5005, 5083, 5A05 series. 5000 series aluminum rod belongs to the more commonly used alloy aluminum rod series, the main element is magnesium, the magnesium content is between 3-5%. Also known as aluminum magnesium alloy. The main characteristics are low density, high tensile strength and high elongation. Under the same area, the weight of Al-Mg alloy is lower than other series, and it is widely used in conventional industry. In our country 5000 series aluminum rod belong to one of more mature aluminum rod series.
Six, 6000 series aluminum rod on behalf of 6061, 6063 mainly contains magnesium and silicon two elements, so concentrated the advantages of 4000 series and 5000 series 6061 is a cold treatment aluminum forging products, suitable for corrosion resistance, oxidation requirements of high applications. Good usability, easy coating, good workability.
Seven, 7000 series aluminum rod represents 7075 mainly contains zinc element. Also belongs to the aviation series, is aluminum magnesium zinc copper alloy, heat treatment alloy, belongs to super dural alloy, has good wear resistance. Rely on import basically, our country production technique still need to be improved.
Eight, 8000 series of aluminum rod is more commonly used 8011 belongs to other series, most of the application is aluminum foil, the production of aluminum rod is not commonly used.
