Shipping tolerances Extruded products will, within practical limits, be supplied in the number of pieces ordered. Unless otherwise stated, orders for production by Hulamin Extrusions will be subject to a mass or piece quantity tolerance of ± 10%. If over-shipment is not permissible the order shall be endorsed “Do not over-ship mass” (or “Pieces” as is applicable) in which case an under-shipment of 10% may be supplied. Supply of an exact number of pieces or other shipping tolerances closer than those stated will be subject to enquiry, and may incur a price premium. Other requirements Orders should be clearly detailed with any special requirements. Minimum acceptable quantities per item The process is such that a minimum length of extrusion emerges from the extrusion cycle. This results in certain minimum quantities being readily produced. All enquiries will be handled by our sales offices who will advise on minimum quantities. A price premium is applied to smaller orders.

  • Aluminium Level 2 2019 CES Edupack
    Level 2 Age-hardening wrought Al-alloys The 2000 and 7000 series age -hardening aluminum alloys are the backbone of the aerospace industry. The 6000 series has lower strength but is more easily extruded: it is used for marine and ground transport systems. THE MATERIAL The high -strength aluminum alloys rely on age -hardening: a sequence of heat treatment steps that causes the precipitation of a nano-scale dispersion of intermetallics that impede dislocation motion and impart strength. This can be as high as 700 MPa giving them a strength-to-weight ratio exceeding even that of the strongest steels. This record describes for the series of wrought Al alloys that rely on age-hardening requiring a solution heat treatment followed by quenching and ageing. This is recorded by adding TX to the series number, where X is a number between 0 and 8 that records the state of heat treatment. They are listed below using the IADS designations (see Technical notes for details).2000 series: Al with 2 to 6% Cu -- the oldest and most widely used aerospace series.6000 series: Al with up to 1.2% Mg and 1.3% Si -- medium strength extrusions and forgings.7000 series: Al with up to 8% Zn and 3% Mg -- the Hercules of aluminum alloys, used for high strength aircraft structures, forgings and sheet. Certain special alloys also contain silver. So this record, like that for the non-age hardening alloys, is broad, encompassing all of these. COMPOSITION 2000 series: Al + 2 to 6% Cu + Fe, Mn, Zn and sometimes Zr 6000 series: Al + up to 1.2%Mg + 0.25% Zn + Si, Fe a nd Mn 7000 series: Al + 4 to 9 % Zn + 1 to 3% Mg + Si, Fe, Cu and occasionally Zr and Ag GENERAL PROPERTIES Density 2500 - 2900 kg/m^3 Price *1.

Abstract Sheets of TD-NiCr processed using techniques developed to produce uniform material were tested to supply mechanical and physical property data. Two heats each of 0. 025 and 0. 051 cm thick sheet were tested. Mechanical properties evaluated included tensile, modulus of elasticity, Poisson's Ratio, compression, creep-rupture, creep strength, bearing strength, shear strength, sharp notch and fatigue strength. Test temperatures covered the range from ambient to 1589K. Physical properties were also studied as a function of temperature.

  • Aluminium Alloys Chemical Composition Pdf
    Aluminium alloys chemical composition pdf Continue Alloy in which aluminum is the predominant lye frame of aluminum welded aluminium alloy, manufactured in 1990. Aluminum alloys (or aluminium alloys; see spelling differences) are alloys in which aluminium (Al) is the predominant metal. Typical alloy elements are copper, magnesium, manganese, silicon, tin and zinc. There are two main classifications, namely casting alloys and forged alloys, both further subdivided into heat-treatable and heat-free categories. Approximately 85% of aluminium is used for forged products, e.g. laminated plates, foils and extrusions. Aluminum cast alloys produce cost-effective products due to their low melting point, although they generally have lower tensile strength than forged alloys. The most important cast aluminium alloy system is Al–Si, where high silicon levels (4.0–13%) contributes to giving good casting features. Aluminum alloys are widely used in engineering structures and components where a low weight or corrosion resistance is required. [1] Alloys composed mostly of aluminium have been very important in aerospace production since the introduction of metal leather aircraft. Aluminum-magnesium alloys are both lighter than other aluminium alloys and much less flammable than other alloys containing a very high percentage of magnesium. [2] Aluminum alloy surfaces will develop a white layer, protective of aluminum oxide, if not protected by proper anodization and/or dyeing procedures. In a wet environment, galvanic corrosion can occur when an aluminum alloy is placed in electrical contact with other metals with a more positive corrosion potential than aluminum, and an electrolyte is present that allows the exchange of ions.

Metallic corrosion takes place in marine environments. In the ship manufacturing industries, welding is used to join the different aluminum parts of the ship structure, these weldments are generally remaining dip in saline water of sea or remain in salt foggy atmosphere, which gets eroded early when comes in contact with salt-water solution. A literature survey has been carried out to understanding of welding and corrosion of aluminum alloys. Keywords: 5xxx Aluminum alloys; marine corrosion; welding. I. INTRODUCTION Metallic corrosion takes place in wet environments when the chemical or electrochemical reaction between a metal and the surrounding environment results in the oxidation of the metal. For corrosion to occur, electrons are produced by the anodic oxidation of the metal must be consumed in a cathodic reaction. These two processes can take place on different parts of a metal structure providing that there is a conducting path for the electrons between the two, and a continuous electrolyte path for ion transport. Aluminium is highly reactive, with a negative standard electrode potential of - 1660mV, and is therefore unstable in the presence of water.

Alloy 6060 is typical of a family of Al-Mg-Si extrusion alloys, which are considered weldable only when using an appropriate filler alloy such as 4043 (Al-5Si). The effect of 4043 filler dilution (i.e. weld metal silicon content) on cracking sensitivity and solidification path of Alloy 6060 welds are investigated.
