Irrigation-Use Seamless Aluminum Tube

As a core component in modern irrigation piping systems, the Aluminum Tube for Irrigation Piping (Model WXGY406) is designed to solve the pain points of traditional irrigation pipes—such as heavy weight, easy corrosion, and short service life. Made from high-quality aluminum alloys, it combines lightweight properties (1/3 the density of steel) with strong corrosion resistance, making it ideal for long-term outdoor use in farmlands, orchards, and greenhouses. Unlike PVC pipes that easily scale or steel pipes that rust, this aluminum tube ensures stable water flow and low maintenance costs, becoming a preferred choice for agricultural water-saving projects worldwide.

Core Features of Aluminum Tube for Irrigation Piping

Multi-Grade Aluminum Alloys for Diverse Needs

This tube supports a wide range of aluminum grades, including 1 Series (1050, 1060, 1070, 1100), 3 Series (3003, 3004), 5 Series (5052, 5083), and 6 Series (6061, 6063). Among them, the AA5083 Aluminum Tube is specially optimized for irrigation: it resists corrosion from irrigation water containing Cl⁻ and SO₄⊃2;⁻ ions, and maintains high strength under low to medium pressure, avoiding leakage or deformation.

High-Precision Dimensions for Efficient Water Flow

With a wall thickness of 0.3mm and above and an outer diameter up to 560mm, the tube adapts to different irrigation scales—from small drip irrigation in vegetable gardens to large sprinkler systems in 1000-acre farms. Its strict straightness of 0.02/91M reduces water flow resistance, preventing uneven water distribution and ensuring every crop gets sufficient moisture.

Advanced Processing & Surface Treatment

Manufactured via hot extrusion, hole punching seamless, and cold drawn aluminum tube technologies, the tube has a smooth inner wall that minimizes scaling and blockages. It also offers flexible surface treatment options: anodizing (enhances corrosion resistance), sand-blasting (for anti-slip needs), and powder coating (for color customization), meeting both functional and aesthetic requirements.

ISO 9001 Certification for Reliability

Certified by ISO 9001, every tube undergoes strict quality inspections—from raw material testing to pressure resistance tests. This certification guarantees consistent performance, making it compliant with international irrigation standards in regions like Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia.

Typical Uses of Aluminum Tube for Irrigation Piping

While tailored for agricultural irrigation pipes, its versatility extends to other industries:

Irrigation: Perfect for field crops (wheat, cotton), tropical orchards (mango, banana), and greenhouse hydroponics, compatible with drip, sprinkler, and flood irrigation systems.

Machinery: Used in micro-motors and pneumatic cylinders due to its lightweight and high ductility, reducing equipment load.

Construction: Applied as curtain tracks and structure supports in buildings, thanks to its rust-proof property.

Furniture: Integrated into outdoor garden furniture frames, withstanding rain and UV exposure without fading.

FAQ About Aluminum Tube for Irrigation Piping

Is this tube suitable for saltwater irrigation in coastal areas?

Yes. The AA5083 Aluminum Tube variant resists saltwater corrosion, making it ideal for coastal farms—no extra anti-rust treatment is needed.

Can I customize the tube’s length for my irregular-shaped farm?

Absolutely. We offer custom aluminum tubing services (e.g., 3m, 5m lengths) to fit your layout, reducing on-site cutting waste.

What is the service life of this irrigation aluminum tube?

Under normal use, it lasts over 20 years—twice as long as PVC pipes (8-10 years) and 5 years longer than galvanized steel pipes.

Does it require special connectors for installation?

No. It works with standard irrigation connectors (e.g., quick-coupling, threaded joints). We also provide OEM connectors for seamless integration.
