Aluminum Knowledge

Our aluminium profiles made from standard aluminum ingots by extrusion have excellent corrosion resistance, able to resist oxidation, corrosion, and wear, which are widely used in various fields such as construction, transportation, electronics, and mechanical manufacturing.

The most common types of aluminum used for boat construction are 5000 and 6000 series alloys, such as 5052, 5083, and 6061. These alloys offer a good balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability, making them ideal for marine applications. The aluminum used in boat construction is often treated with protective coatings or anodized to further enhance its resistance to corrosion and ensure longevity in the demanding marine environment.

Zhongchang Aluminum oxidation film thickness of more than 13mu, even color, without mechanical lines, corrosion resistance, durable shining, and decorative. Available in different colors like metal silver, champagne, dark, bronze, black......

Zhongchang powder coating has undergone an anti-bending test and impact resistance test to detect that the coating has no cracking or falling off. No particles can stay in the air during the processing, which would allow our profile surface color to be smooth enough and without any particles on the surface.

Aluminum anodizing is a process that enhances the natural oxide layer on aluminum, resulting in a more durable and corrosion-resistant surface. This process is widely used in various industries, including construction, automotive, and electronics, to improve the appearance and performance of aluminum profiles. Zhongchang Aluminum Factory is a leading manufacturer and supplier of anodized aluminum profiles, offering a comprehensive range of customized solutions for clients worldwide.

In general, a high-quality powder coating on aluminum profiles can be expected to last 15 to 20 years or more. However, this lifespan can vary based on factors such as exposure to UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, and physical abrasion. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help extend the life of the powder coating and preserve the appearance of the aluminum profiles.

Aluminum tubing is a versatile material used in a wide range of industries, from aerospace and automotive to construction and manufacturing. Among the various methods of producing aluminum tubing, cold drawing is a popular choice due to its ability to create high-quality, precision tubes with excellent surface finish and dimensional accuracy. 

6061 and 6063 aluminum alloys differ in their composition and properties. 6061 is known for its high strength and excellent machinability, making it suitable for structural applications. On the other hand, 6063 offers superior formability and is often used for extrusion processes, making it ideal for creating complex shapes and profiles. Additionally, 6063 exhibits better corrosion resistance and heat conductivity compared to 6061.

CNC machining is widely used in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, and medical device manufacturing, due to its ability to produce high-precision, complex parts with efficiency and accuracy.

Aluminum extrusion is a manufacturing process that shapes aluminum by forcing it through a shaped opening in a die. This process produces complex cross-sectional profiles for various applications. The extruded aluminum profiles are used in industries such as construction, automotive, electronics, and more.
