What is 4040 Aluminum Extrusion
About 4040 Aluminum Profile:
4040 aluminum extrusion is a common type of aluminum profile. The “40” in its name stands for the cross-section width and height of the aluminum profile, both of which are 40 mm.
Its dimensions:
It belongs to the industrial aluminum profile of Slot 8 series, with a slot width of 8mm, a meter weight of 1.85kg/m, a wall thickness of 2mm, and a bevel thickness of 2.5mm.

Advantages of using 4040 aluminum extrusion:
1. good corrosion resistance:
The surface of aluminum profile has a layer of dense oxide film. It has good corrosion resistance, can be used in a variety of harsh environments, such as coastal environments or humid environments it can be
2. Excellent thermal conductivity:
It has high thermal conductivity and can transfer heat quickly. Ensure the stability of the structure, especially in the need for heat dissipation occasions, such as electronic equipment, mechanical equipment. It can be used as a photovoltaic frame material to ensure the safety of circuits in high-temperature environments.
3. High plasticity:
4040 aluminum extrusion can be processed into various specifications and shapes. It can modify the extrusion mold according to customer requirements. For example, the size of the slot width is modified to 3mm. it can meet the needs of different applications with great flexibility.
Its applications:
1. safety fence:
It can be used to manufacture many types of safety fences. Such as machinery and equipment fences, robot fences, factory workshop fences partitions and so on. Installing it requires paying attention to the size of the site and taking measurements in advance.
2. workbench:
Whether it is assembly line workbench, anti-static workbench, electrical workbench or drawer workbench. It can all be assembled using 4040 aluminum.
3. Temporary building
It can be used as a frame for temporary houses. 4040 aluminum is able to be the frame of tent or tin after installation. And it is suitable for camping or public places. It can help people to build tents or awnings in festivals.
Overall:
4040 aluminum is an excellent aluminum alloy extrusion. It is characterized by excellent corrosion resistance, and installation flexibility. 4040 aluminum has been used in many fields. It will support the development of our life in the future.
