Aluminum Coil

Aluminum coil is an essential part of many industries, including construction, packaging, and transportation. These coils are made from high-quality aluminum that has been rolled into thin sheets and then wound into a coil shape. This unique form allows for easy storage, transportation, and use in various applications.

Introduction

Aluminum is initially cast into ingots and then, through a rolling process, is shaped into thin, flat coils of varying thicknesses and widths. This manufacturing technique ensures uniformity, strength and flexibility, making aluminum coils suitable for a range of applications in different industries.

Application of aluminum coil

Aluminum is an especially useful metal because of its unique qualities, including ductility, resistance to rust and corrosion, and more. Many industries adopt aluminum coils and utilize it in a variety of ways. Below, we will introduce some specific applications of aluminum coils.

Aluminum coil in automobile industry

Vehicles require durable, strong yet relatively light and corrosion-resistant parts to handle the various weather conditions you may encounter while driving. Therefore, most vehicle engine parts, air conditioners, radiators, wheels, car doors, and many other parts are manufactured using aluminum coils.

Aluminum coil in building Decoration

Most construction projects use it to manufacture structures, doors, Windows, ceilings, curtain wall profiles, platens, color coated panels, and surface finishes.

Aluminum coil in electronic and electrical components

Items with electrical components often use aluminum as its corrosion resistance ensures long-term use of wires in harsh conditions.

Aluminum coil in food container

Aluminum is malleable and cans can be mass-produced without difficulty. In addition, aluminum ensures that the food inside will stay fresh for a long time due to its resistance to rust and corrosion. Apart from cans, aluminum coils are also used to make other containers such as metal bottles and their lids.

Aluminum coil in license plate

Because aluminum is flexible and easy to process, in some countries it is used for license plates.

The difference between aluminum coil and aluminum foil

The difference between them is the thickness. The thickness of aluminum coil is greater than 0.2mm, while the thickness of aluminum foil is less than 0.2mm.

Grade of aluminum coil 

1050

The aluminum content is 99.5%. It has high plasticity, corrosion resistance, good electrical and thermal conductivity, but low strength, cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, has poor machinability, and can accept contact welding and gas welding. The production process is relatively simple and the price is relatively cheap.

1060

The aluminum content of 1060 is 99.6%. It has good elongation, tensile strength, and high formability.

3003 

3003 is a typical aluminum-manganese alloy. It has good formability, good corrosion resistance and weldability, good deep drawing properties and high plasticity.

3004 

3004 is also an aluminum-manganese alloy series and has higher strength than 3003. It has good formability, solubility and good corrosion resistance, so it is used to make parts that require higher strength than 3003 alloy.

5052 

5052 has good corrosion resistance, good weldability, good cold workability, high fatigue strength, high plasticity and corrosion resistance.

5083 

5083 has good corrosion resistance and excellent welding performance.

6061

6061 has many advantages such as small deformation after processing, good quenching effect, and good stability.

6082 

6082 is a heat-strengthened alloy with good formability, weldability, machinability and corrosion resistance. It also has medium strength and maintains good operability after annealing.

8011 

The 8 series alloy has a wide range of uses. We can see it in building exterior walls, beverage bottle caps, pharmaceutical packaging, food packaging, cable foil, milk cover materials, sealing foil, etc.
