How to use Aluminum Tubing safely?

Aluminum tube is a kind of non-ferrous metal pipe, which is made of pure aluminum or aluminum alloy and extruded into a hollow metal tube along its longitudinal length. Aluminum tubing has the characteristics of corrosion resistance and light weight, which is widely used in all walks of life, such as automobile, ship, aerospace, aviation, electrical appliances, agriculture, electromechanical, home furnishing, etc. Aluminum pipe is a kind of high strength duralumin, which can be strengthened by heat treatment. Due to its low corrosion resistance, anodizing and spraying methods or adding aluminum coating on the surface are often used to improve the corrosion resistance. In addition, aluminum tube can also be used as mold material.

Classification and application of the aluminum tubes

Aluminum tubes have the characteristics of corrosion resistance and light weight, which are widely divided into various industries, such as: automobiles, ships, aerospace, aviation, electrical appliances, agriculture, electromechanical, household appliances, etc. Aluminum pipes have been ubiquitous in our lives.

1. Aluminum tubing can be divided into: square tube, round tube, pattern tube, special-shaped tube according to the shape.

2. According to the extrusion method, the aluminum tubes can be divided into: seamless aluminum tube, ordinary extruded tube.

3. According to the accuracy, it is divided into: ordinary aluminum tube, precision aluminum tube, and precision aluminum tube generally needs to be reprocessed after extrusion, such as cold drawing, fine drawing, and rolling.

4. Divided by thickness: ordinary aluminum tubing, thin-walled aluminum tubing.

How to use aluminum tubing safely?

The aluminum tube has five layers, the inner and outer layers are both polyethylene, and the middle layer is a thin aluminum layer. There is a layer of adhesive between the two materials, and the five layers are tightly bonded together.

The superior performance of aluminum tubing is: stable chemical performance, corrosion resistance, non-toxic and pollution-free, smooth surface and inner wall, no scaling, light weight, free bending, good toughness, unique environmental protection, energy saving and saving advantages.

At present, there are many domestic aluminum pipe brands, and the selection of raw materials, chemical additives, production processes and production equipment is not balanced. Some brands choose low-quality, low-cost materials with poor performance in the selection of raw materials and adhesives. The production technology is backward, and it is impossible to achieve five-layer co-extrusion. The aluminum tubes produced in this way are naturally far from quality, price, installation and use. 

With excellent product quality and perfect service measures, a brand that combines the two is the first choice of consumers. The quality of low-quality and low-priced products cannot be guaranteed, let alone service. Only by establishing the correct consumption concept, can we choose truly satisfactory aluminum tubing and enable consumers for a perfect home.

What should we pay attention to when using the aluminum pipes?

1.Clean with water

Clean water is used to wash the inner wall of the aluminum pipes with clean water, but the impurities such as calcium magnesium ion scale and biological slime attached to the inner wall of the aluminum tubes cannot be completely removed, and the effect is not obvious.

2. Liquid medicine cleaning

Liquid medicine cleaning is to add chemical reagents into water, but the chemical composition is corrosive to the aluminum tubing, and it also shortens the service life of the aluminum pipes. It is a kind of practice to fish after drying up the water, which is not advisable.

As far as I am concerned, you will know how to use the aluminum tubes safely after reading this article.
