What is Waterproof Aluminum Decking

Waterproof Aluminum Deck is an aluminum alloy profile formed by extrusion process. It has excellent waterproof performance. It is commonly used in marinas, boat decks and outdoor applications that require waterproof treatment.

Its characteristics

1. Material properties:

It is made of aluminum alloy 6063-T5.It has the advantages of light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance.
Through the specific extrusion process, various shapes and specifications of profiles can be produced to meet the needs of different fields.

2. Waterproof performance:

Waterproof aluminum alloy decking is specially treated or designed to have excellent waterproof performance. It can be treated by surface treatment, such as powder coating. It can effectively prevent water penetration and protect the structure or equipment underneath it from water erosion.

3. dimensions and specifications:

Its exact dimensions and specifications can be found in the following drawings from Hugh Aluminum. We support customized manufacturing of waterproof aluminum decking. That is to say, we adjust the width, length and height of the deck according to the requirements of the construction project.

Its production process:

1. Pre-treatment: Surface treatment and cutting of aluminum ingots to adapt them to the subsequent heating and extrusion process.
2. Heating: Softens the aluminum bar so that it can be easily formed during the extrusion process.
3. Aluminum Extrusion: The heated aluminum bar is extruded through a die into the desired shape and size. In this process, the aluminum bar is under three-way compression stress in the extrusion barrel, which can give full play to the plasticity of the metal.
4. Cooling: Control the temperature of the profile after extrusion to keep it stable.
5. Straightening: Straighten the extruded deck to eliminate stress and improve the straightness and flatness of the profile.
6. Surface treatment (for waterproof performance): waterproof aluminum decks are usually powder coated on the surface. It will enhance the waterproof performance and corrosion resistance of the deck.

Application of waterproof aluminum deck:

It is mainly used in docks, outdoor platforms, patio decks and balconies.
In these application scenarios, waterproof aluminum alloy extruded deck can not only provide reliable waterproof protection, but also meet the requirements of structural strength, durability and aesthetics.
