What is aluminum tube
Aluminum alloy is one of the most widely used non-ferrous structural materials in industry. It has been widely used in aviation, aerospace, automobile, machinery manufacturing, shipbuilding and chemical industry. With the rapid development of science and technology and industrial economy in recent years, the demand for aluminum tube and aluminum alloy tube is increasing day by day. The production process of aluminum tube generally adopts ingot heating - extruding - finishing production process; For the aluminum alloy material that can be strengthened by heat treatment, but also for quenching - aging treatment, hard alloy and high magnesium aluminum alloy pipe, generally adopt the production process of cold rolling the extruded tube billet first, and then stretching out the finished product.In aviation, aerospace, automobile, machinery manufacturing, shipbuilding, chemical and other industries.

Characteristics of 6061 t6 aluminum tube
It is a kind of high-strength hard aluminum, which can be strengthened by heat treatment. It has medium plasticity under annealing, just quenching and hot state, and has good spot welding performance. When gas welding and argon arc welding are used, the aluminum tube has a tendency to form intergranular cracks; The machinability is good after quenching and cold work hardening, but poor in the annealed state. The corrosion resistance is not high, and anodizing treatment and painting methods are often used or the surface is coated with aluminum layer to improve the corrosion resistance. Can also be used as mold material.
Advantages of 6061 t6 aluminum tube
First, the advantages of welding technology: the welding technology of thin-walled copper-aluminum pipes suitable for industrial production is known as a world-class problem, and it is the key technology for replacing copper with aluminum for connecting pipes of air conditioners.
Second is the advantage of service life: from the perspective of the inner wall of the aluminum tube, since the refrigerant does not contain moisture, the inner wall of the copper-aluminum connecting tube will not corrode.
third is the energy saving advantage: the connection pipeline between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, the lower the heat transfer efficiency, the more energy saving, or the better the heat insulation effect, the more electricity saving.
Fourth, excellent bending performance, easy to install and move
