Aluminum round bar is also called aluminum rod,it is a solid cylindrical piece of aluminum metal, it is Produced by extrusion process, it is available in various diameters and lengths, and the size can be customized according to customer needs.

 

Common alloys used for aluminum round bars include : 6061, 7075, 2024, 1100, 5052, 5083, 5086,etc.

 

1000 series aluminum is pure aluminum. The main models are 1050,1060,1100, and the aluminum content reaches more than 99%.

 

Because it does not contain other technical elements, the production process is relatively simple and the price is relatively cheap. It is the most commonly used series in the current conventional industries.

 

The most common 1000 series aluminum models on the market are 1050 and 1060, and their aluminum contents must reach 99.5% and 99.6% or more respectively.

 

The characteristics of 2000 series aluminum round bars are high hardness, among which copper content is the highest, about 3-5%. 2000 series aluminum round bars belong to aviation aluminum materials and are not often used in conventional industries.

 

2024 is a typical hard aluminum alloy, which is a heat-treatable alloy with high strength, easy processing, easy turning, and average corrosion resistance.

 

After heat treatment (T3, T4, T351), the mechanical properties of 2024 aluminum round bars are significantly improved.

 

Tensile strength: 470MPa

0.2% yield strength: 325MPa

Elongation: 10%

Fatigue strength: 105MPa

Hardness: 120HB

 

The application of 2024 aluminum round bars: aircraft structures, rivets, truck wheels, propeller components and other structural parts.

The 3000 series aluminum round bar is mainly composed of manganese, with a content between 1.0-1.5. The representative models are 3003 and 3A21, which are aluminum round bar models with good anti-rust function.

5000 series aluminum round bars belong to the commonly used alloy aluminum rod series. The main element is magnesium, and the magnesium content is between 3-5%. It can also be called aluminum-magnesium alloy. The main characteristics are low density, high tensile strength and high elongation.

 

The main models of 5000 series aluminum bars include 5052, 5005, 5083, 5A05,it is widely used in conventional industries.

6061 and 6063 mainly contain two elements, magnesium and silicon, so they concentrate the advantages of 4000 series aluminum and 5000 series aluminum. 

 

It is suitable for applications with high requirements for corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance. Good workability, easy coating and good processability.

 

7075 aluminum alloy mainly contains zinc, belongs to the aviation series aluminum, is an aluminum-magnesium-zinc-copper alloy, is a heat-treatable alloy, is a super-hard aluminum alloy, and has good wear resistance.
