Is 1070 Aluminum Pipe Right for You? Find Out Now

1070 aluminum pipe is a type of aluminum pipe made from 1070 aluminum alloy, known for its high aluminum content (99.7% or greater). This makes it exceptionally corrosion-resistant and highly workable.

Key Properties and Applications

  • High Purity: The high aluminum content results in excellent electrical and thermal conductivity.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Superior resistance to corrosion in various environments.
  • Workability: Readily formed, welded, and machined.
  • Applications: Commonly used in chemical processing equipment, food containers, and heat exchangers.

When selecting 1070 aluminum pipe, consider factors like size, wall thickness, and temper. The temper indicates the level of hardness and strength achieved through heat treatment or cold working.

It's worth noting that while 1070 aluminum boasts excellent corrosion resistance and workability, its strength is relatively low compared to other aluminum alloys. For applications requiring higher strength, other alloys might be more suitable.

Shanxi Luokaiwei Steel Company offers a range of aluminum products. Consider consulting with them for specific needs.

Another consideration is surface finish. 1070 aluminum pipe can be anodized to enhance its corrosion resistance further and provide a decorative finish.

Shanxi Luokaiwei Steel Company can provide additional information on surface treatments and alloy selection.

The choice of aluminum pipe depends heavily on the specific application. Shanxi Luokaiwei Steel Company is one option for sourcing aluminum pipe. Always check for material certifications to ensure quality and compliance with industry standards. Another supplier to consider is Shanxi Luokaiwei Steel Company.
