South Africa is located at the southernmost tip of the African continent, spanning the tropical and subtropical regions of the Southern Hemisphere. The country's climate is generally characterized by high temperatures, dryness, and strong coastal winds. Aluminum Windows & Doors significantly reduce the impact of this climate, making them widely used in South Africa. Features of South African Aluminum Windows & Door Strong Corrosion Resistance: South Africa is predominantly coastal, with high levels of sea salt ions from seawater evaporation. These ions combine with moisture in the air to form "salt fog", creating a generally high-salt-fog environment. Therefore, South African aluminum profiles must possess high corrosion resistance to withstand this coastal environment. Ordinary natural oxide films are insufficient to resist the salt fog ions; window and door frames require surface treatments (such as anodizing and fluorocarbon coating). Thus, South African aluminum windows and doors possess strong corrosion resistance. High-Strength Frames and Doors: Coastal environments are often accompanied by strong sea winds. To withstand these strong winds, the materials and structural design of aluminum windows and doors must meet high strength...

Aluminum anodizing is a surface treatment method for aluminum profiles, completed through an electrochemical process. Its film thickness can be several times thicker than that of natural oxide films, thus significantly increasing corrosion resistance. The following is a detailed introduction to aluminum anodizing. What is Aluminum Anodizing? It is essentially an electrochemical surface treatment method. Using aluminum profiles as the anode material, it is placed in an acidic environment, and under the influence of an external electric current, a film "grows" on the surface of the aluminum profile. This film has the chemical formula Al₂O₃, and is known for its strong corrosion resistance. Why is Aluminum Anodizing Necessary? Corrosion ProtectionNatural oxide films are thin and uneven, requiring a thicker layer of aluminum oxide for protection. The surface film of anodized aluminum is a dense layer of aluminum oxide, effectively preventing reactions with external environmental substances such as oxygen, water, and salt spray. Therefore, it resists salt spray environments and does not undergo chemical changes even in relatively humid environments over long periods, providing significant protection for aluminum profiles. Enhancing Appearance...

What are Thermal Break Aluminum Doors and Windows? Aluminum doors and windows are familiar to everyone, but what are Thermal Break Aluminum Doors and Windows? They are an upgraded version of aluminum doors and windows, offering enhanced functionality, including improved thermal and sound insulation. Below is a detailed introduction. Why Thermal Break Aluminum Doors and Windows Need to Be Thermally Broken? Aluminum itself has high thermal conductivity, and aluminum profiles occupy a significant area in aluminum doors and windows. Therefore, excessively high or low temperatures can easily have a significant impact on the indoor environment. In summer, the indoor temperature becomes very hot, and in winter, heating dissipates quickly, making it even colder. Therefore, thermal break aluminum doors and windows are designed to reduce heat transfer. How do Thermal Break Aluminum Doors and Windows work? To reduce heat transfer within the aluminum frame, insulating materials are added to fill the cavities, such as PA66 nylon thermal break strips, polyurethane, PVC, etc. When heat passes through the aluminum frame, the insulating material significantly reduces heat transfer. Aluminum frames typically have a...

The quenching process of aluminum profiles is an important procedure in the aluminum industry. So, how does it work? Shenghai Aluminum will introduce to you its principle, steps, applications, and precautions, etc.   Principle Quenching treatment of aluminum profiles is an important production process in the production of aluminum profiles and a key link in the heat treatment process. Aluminum profiles that have undergone quenching treatment can enhance their strength and hardness and increase their compressive resistance.   Why is quenching necessary for aluminum profiles? 1. From a physical perspective, it mainly increases strength and hardness. Aluminum profiles that have undergone quenching treatment can significantly enhance their strength and hardness. 2.From the perspective of elemental composition, since alloying elements such as Mg and Si in aluminum profiles tend to form unstable phases at high temperatures, this can easily weaken the solid solution strengthening effect, potentially leading to a decrease in tensile strength; a reduction in plasticity and elongation; a decline in corrosion resistance, with dark spots likely to appear on the surface during oxidation; and cracking of the profiles, resulting...

What is aluminum extrusion? I believe everyone has this question. We can understand it from its principle, classification, advantages, steps, applications, and how to choose, etc. I believe it can solve this confusion for everyone. Principle The principle of aluminum extrusion is that the aluminum alloy material is heated to the required temperature, reaching a state where it can be freely controlled. At this point, pressure is applied to deform the aluminum billet inside the mold, and finally, it becomes an aluminum extrusion product with a specific cross-section. The Steps Of Aluminum Extrusion 1. Preparation Of Raw Materials Aluminum rods are usually used as raw materials. The aluminum alloy grade, such as 6061, 6063, etc., should be determined according to the required product. After selection, we also need to clean them to remove impurities. 2. Heating Before extrusion, the material should be heated to around 500℃ to ensure smooth extrusion into the corresponding shape. The temperature should not be too high, otherwise it will cause the aluminum to become too soft. 3. Preparing The Mold We at Shenghai can customize...
