What is Aluminum F-Channel Extrusion
What is it?
F-type aluminum channel extrusion is a specific aluminum extrusion molding process. By extruding aluminum channel with F-type cross-section shape and size and with certain mechanical properties.
The following is a detailed of F-type aluminum channel extrusion:
Its material:
Aluminum alloy 6000 series is usually used as the material for F channel. The common aluminum alloy 6063 and 6061 grades will be its main material.
Its design:
The cross-section shape of F channel is asymmetric and unbalanced. This increases the complexity of extrusion production and can lead to difficulties in ensuring dimensional accuracy and flatness. However, the design of F-type aluminum channel still has its unique advantages and application scenarios.
Its manufacturing process:
- Pre-treatment: Surface treatment and cutting of aluminum bars to adapt them to the subsequent heating and extrusion process.
- Heating: Softens the aluminum bar so that it can be easily formed during the extrusion process.
- Extrusion: The heated ingot is extruded through a die into the desired F-type shape and size.
- Cooling: Controlling the temperature of the profile to keep it stable during the extrusion process.
- Straightening: Straighten the extruded profile to eliminate stress and improve the straightness and flatness of the profile.
- Surface treatment: it will pass through anodizing, spraying paint, grinding and polishing processes. Obtain the exterior coating. This will improve its surface hardness and corrosion resistance.
Product Features:
High strength and corrosion resistance: F-type aluminum channel extrusion products have excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, applicable to various environments.
- Lightweight: Aluminum extrusion profiles are lightweight, helping to reduce the weight of the overall structure.
- Easy to process: Aluminum extrusions are easy for subsequent processing and assembly. For example, drilling or welding.
- Aesthetically pleasing: F-type aluminum channel extrusions are aesthetically pleasing and suitable for a variety of decorative and architectural applications.
Its application:
It is mainly used in the decoration of indoor buildings and as fitting accessories. The following application designs are from Hugh Aluminum.
