What kind of aluminum is used for aluminum

Feb 20, 2024

1. Al6063/Al6061 aluminum alloy

Excellent plasticity allows the extrusion process to manufacture aluminum profile radiators. Heat sinks of almost any shape can be manufactured with mature technology, low price and high processability.

2. Cast aluminum

Mainly used in large irregular-shaped radiators and radiators integrated into equipment cabinets.

3. LF/LY series

Mainly used in electronic equipment radiators in special use environments. The use environment has certain requirements on hardness and corrosion resistance.

LY12 is currently more commonly used.

Aluminum profile radiators are also called radiator aluminum profiles or sunflower aluminum profiles. Aluminum profile radiators have the characteristics of beautiful appearance, light weight, good heat dissipation performance, and good energy saving effect.

The surface of the processed aluminum radiator is anodized and treated to increase the corrosion resistance, wear resistance and aesthetic appearance of the aluminum. Commonly used types of radiator aluminum profiles in China include electronic, electrical, and computer radiator aluminum profiles, sunflower aluminum profile radiators, radiator profiles for power semiconductors, etc. Aluminum profile radiators are widely used in machinery, automobiles, wind power generation, engineering machinery, air compressors, railway locomotives, household appliances and other industries due to their superior performance.

There are two main types of aluminum profile radiators: high-pressure cast aluminum and stretched aluminum alloy welding. Its main advantages are:
① Aluminum profile radiators have better heat dissipation and obvious energy saving characteristics. In the same room, if the same specifications of radiators are used, the number of aluminum cast radiators will be less than that of steel.
② Aluminum profile radiators have good oxidation corrosion resistance and do not need to add any additives. The principle is that once aluminum encounters oxygen in the air, it will form an oxide film. This film is both tough and dense, preventing further damage to the body material. of corrosion.
When choosing an aluminum profile radiator, it is best to choose a high-pressure cast aluminum module combined radiator. This kind of radiator is die-cast in one piece, so there is no problem of weld leakage. And its biggest advantage is that the product is not limited by the community heating system, and is not corroded by oxygen even in an open boiler system. Due to the modular modular design, after a heating season, if the indoor temperature is found to be insufficient, it can still You can install one or two more in the second year to meet your needs, instead of having to replace the entire heating unit like a steel radiator.
In addition, since aluminum radiators have different water quality requirements than steel, mixed installation of aluminum radiators with other materials should be avoided.
