Aluminum Bar

An aluminum bar is a straight piece of metal. It can be used in a variety of ways. As its main material, aluminum features high strength and good resistance to heat. Also, as a metal bar, an aluminum bar is a good conductor. In terms of appearance, since the main material of aluminum bars is aluminum, aluminum bars usually are silver-gray. Besides, an aluminum bar stock comes in various shapes.

There are aluminum square bars, aluminum round bars and aluminum flat bars. Meanwhile, those bars can be sorted into solid bars and hollow bars. In addition, in order to improve the overall quality of actual goods, other materials will be added to aluminum when producing aluminum bars, such as magnesium, silicon, copper and zinc. Afterward, aluminum bars made from different materials will be tagged with different numbers for easy differentiation.

What is the specificity of 3003 aluminum bars?

3003 aluminum bars refer to metal bars that are mainly made from aluminum and manganese. On the one hand, compared with aluminum bars tagged with 7000, 3003 aluminum bars have relatively lower strength for their weight. However, they show great resistance to corrosion and easy welding in practice. Based on those descriptions, 3003 aluminum bars are widely used as low-load components in all kinds of equipment, like ducts for fuel tanks, gas tanks or fluid containers. On the other hand, 3003 aluminum bars show higher strength than aluminum bars tagged with 1000. With good strength and anti-corrosive capability, 3003 aluminum bars can be used in the process of making containers for storing tableware, clothes, food, chemical products or liquid.

What is the specificity of 6063 aluminum bars?

6063 aluminum bars refer to metal bars that are mainly made from aluminum, magnesium, and silicon. Taking on silver-gray luster, seamless and smooth 6063 aluminum bars can serve as precise mechanical parts. In terms of their advantages, they have relatively better resistance to corrosion than aluminum bars tagged with 4000 and 5000. Also, with medium strength, they demonstrate an acceptable performance in terms of processing. For example, they can be processed into metal racks, tables or other furniture. Besides, an aluminum bar grating is a common item in daily life. Moreover, for DIY lovers, aluminum bars serve as useful components when making handmade things, such as wind chimes, shelf brackets, turntables and triangles. With the descriptions mentioned above, 6063 aluminum bars are widely used in machinery industries, hardware manufacturing industries, furniture factories and architecture fields.
