The classification of aluminum square pipe
The classification of aluminum square tubes can be carried out from multiple dimensions, and the following are some main classification ways:
1. classification by appearance
Square tube: Aluminum tube with a square cross-section shape.
Round tube: Aluminum tube with a round cross-section shape.
Pattern pipe: Aluminum pipe with a specific pattern or pattern on the surface, which is both beautiful and has a certain anti-slip effect.
Shaped tube: the cross-section shape is non-standard shape, which can be customized according to customer needs.
2. Classification by extrusion method
Seamless aluminum pipe: made of seamless extrusion process, the pipe wall is seamless, with high air tightness and strength.
Ordinary extrusion pipe: Made by conventional extrusion process, the wall of the pipe may have one or more joints.
3. Classification by precision
Ordinary aluminum tube: Aluminum tube that meets the general accuracy requirements.
Precision aluminum pipe: high precision requirements, usually need to be reprocessed after extrusion, such as cold drawing, rolling and other processes to improve the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the pipe.
4. Classification by thickness
Ordinary aluminum tube: Aluminum tube with moderate wall thickness, suitable for most application scenarios.
Thin-walled aluminum tube: Aluminum tube with relatively thin tube walls, which has the advantages of light weight and material saving, but may sacrifice some strength and stiffness.
5. Classification by use
Aluminum square pipe can also be divided into two categories according to the use of industrial type and building type. Industrial aluminum square pipe is mainly used in machine making, industrial automation and other fields, while architectural aluminum square pipe is mainly used in architectural decoration, garden gardening and other aspects. These two categories of aluminum square tubes may differ in material, specifications and performance to meet the specific needs of their respective fields.
In addition, there are some special types of aluminum square tubes, such as heart-shaped aluminum square tubes (hollow inside but with a certain strength and stiffness) and square-through aluminum square tubes (with many small holes on the outer surface to provide ventilation and light transmission effects). These special types of aluminum square tubes have unique advantages in some specific application scenarios.
In general, there are a variety of classification methods for aluminum square tubes, and the appropriate type of aluminum square tubes can be selected according to actual needs.
