Aluminum I Beam

Features For Aluminum I Beam

The strength of aluminum I beam is quite strong strength, so it is used to provide lightweight structural support for structures such as raceways and framework. These types of beams are also diversely used to provide support to buildings and enclosures.

Lightweight

Aluminium has a density approximately one-third that of steel, making aluminium I-beams significantly lighter for the same volume.

High Strength

Despite its lower density, aluminium alloys (e.g., 6061 or 7075) offer high strength and excellent load-bearing capacity.Aluminium I-beams have a high strength-to-weight ratio, making them ideal for applications where both strength and weight reduction are critical.

Corrosion Resistance

Aluminum naturally forms a protective anodized layer on its surface that protects against anodization and corrosion. As a result, aluminum I-beams are suitable for use in wet, marine or other corrosive environments without the need for frequent maintenance that steel requires.

Ease of Fabrication

Aluminium is easy to cut, weld, drill, and shape, allowing engineers and manufacturers to customize the size and shape of I-beams for specific applications.Aluminium I-beams are often produced through the extrusion process, allowing precise control of dimensions and surface quality.

Excellent Thermal and Electrical Conductivity

Aluminium has superior thermal and electrical conductivity, which is useful in applications involving heat dissipation or electrical components.

Dimensional Stability and Durability

Aluminium I-beams exhibit excellent dimensional stability over time and can withstand temperature changes without significant deformation or failure.

Wellste: Your Top Aluminum I Beam Supplier

Wellste Aluminum I beam surface are usually mill finish. However, in some cases where the aluminium I beam has to be exposed to extreme weather conditions or has to endure a corrosive environment, likes marine situation, the process of mill finish alone cannot protect it. Anodizing is a must and perfect solution available at Wellste. After a carefully monitored anodizing process, we can get aluminum I beam with better corrosion resistance.

What’s more, Wellste offers fast and friendly customer service. The foremost goal and rigid pursue of Wellste is to ensure customer satisfaction and the common development with our customers.

Manufacture in Technology

Extruded

Extrusion is the most commonly used process for the manufacture of I-beams and is particularly suitable for the production of small and medium-sized I-beams (usually with a width of 50mm – 500mm).

heat treatment

Heat treatment is used to increase the strength and hardness of aluminum alloys, especially the 6XXX and 7XXX series. Common treatments are T5 and T6, T5 is used for alloys such as 6063 to improve strength, T6 is used for 6061 alloys for higher strength and hardness.
T6 is commonly used for alloys such as 6061 to provide higher strength and hardness.

Welding

For larger I-beams (e.g. > 500mm wide), they may need to be manufactured by welding or splicing processes.
Commonly used welding methods include MIG welding or TIG welding.

Applications

Wellste Aluminum I beam provides a firm structural base for the framework. Owing to these useful properties, 6061 aluminum I beam is often used in trailers, trucks, automobiles, railcars, railings, and buses. It has strong strength, excellent hardness, and corrosion resistance.
