What Is The Importance Of Heat Treatment Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

The process of extruding Oval aluminum extrusions does not end when they exit the die.

As you would expect, we use different alloys in our process.

These alloys react differently to temperature changes, and as a result, we must ensure that they are adequately treated for optimum performance.

Heat treatment significantly improves the hardness and tensile strength of the oval aluminum extrusions.

Additionally, heat treatment relieves stress that can prevent complications such as warping.

There are four heat treatments types that we use on aluminum or its alloys.

These heat treatments and their corresponding benefits/importance are:-

Precipitation Heat Treatment

This type of heat treatment makes the Oval aluminum extrusions hard by precipitation of its components using solid solutions.

One way that this can be done is by aging. Aging for oval aluminum extrusions is the transformation of supersaturated aluminum solution into precipitate particles.

The main reason for aging is to improve the mechanical properties of aluminum, e.g., tensile strength and hardness.

Solution Heat Treatment

This type of heat treatment improves the overall mechanical properties of the Oval aluminum extrusions.

Annealing

This is the most common type of heat treatment applied to oval aluminum profiles.

It is done to stabilize the dimensions and properties of oval aluminum extrusions and to make them soft.

Homogenizing Or Preheating

This process makes the Oval aluminum extrusions more workable by reducing their cost structure chemical segregation.

Heat treatment is an essential process in the oval aluminum extrusion industry as it requires precision.

Thus, it is conducted in furnaces that are adequately built and designed to provide required thermal conditions such as ours.

They also ought to be sufficiently equipped with apparatus to ensure uniformity as continuity of time-temperature cycles.

What Is The Maximum Profile Width Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

With the smallest press in our inventory, we can provide oval aluminum extrusions with 5mm width and 30g in weight per meter.

Our largest press can extrude oval aluminum extrusions with a maximum width of up to 620 mm, weighing up to 60 kilograms/meter.

Which Are The Extrusion Methods Used In The Formation Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

There are multiple Extrusion methods, but all can be done under two conditions, i.e., cold or hot conditions.

Hot Extrusion

This process requires very high temperatures. Usually, around 75% to half of the aluminum alloy’s melting point.

It is also done at reasonably high levels of pressure ranging between Max:101,525 psi/700 MPa and Min: 5076 psi/35 MPa.

Good lubrication is also necessary to maintain die life due to temperature and pressure wear on the machinery.

The best choice of lubricant is graphite or oil for lower temperature extrusions and glass powder for high-temperature extrusions.

One major disadvantage of this method of Extrusion is the high operations and equipment acquisition overheads.

Cold Extrusion

This method of Extrusion is conducted at slightly higher than room temperature temperatures or at Room temperature.

Provided the tooling is robust enough to withstand the stresses created by Extrusion, this process can work for most materials, including aluminum.

The advantages of using this method are lack of oxidation, impressive surface finish, close tolerance, and high strength levels.

Other specific methods of Extrusion include:

  • Hydrostatic Extrusion incorporates a pressurized liquid surrounding the workpiece to reduce force requirements.
  • Impact extrusion, which uses a high-velocity metal slug to force the workpiece into the die.

How Does Anodizing Vs. Powder Coating Surface Finishes Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion Compare?

Anodizing is a surface treatment for aluminum parts that takes advantage of this oxide layer by thickening it.

We take the oval aluminum extrusion, submerge it into an electrolytic bath, and run an electric current through it.

By using aluminum as the anode in the circuit, the oxidation process occurs on the surface of the metal. It creates a thicker protective oxide layer than the one occurring naturally.

This artificial oxide layer enhances the properties of the natural oxide layer, such as:-

  • Corrosion and wear resistance
  • increased heat dissipation
  • Improved glue and primer adhesion.

The resulting surface is also perfect for adding dyes and finishing. We then recycle the chemicals in the electrolytic bath for future anodizing projects.

Anodizing aluminum profile

Anodizing aluminum profile

Powder coating is a finishing process used on a wide variety of metal products, including Oval aluminum extrusions.

This process results in a protective and decorative layer on the surface of the treated product.

Unlike other coating applications (e.g., painting), powder coating is a dry application process.

We don’t use any solvents, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to other finishing treatments.

After cleaning the oval aluminum extrusion, we apply the powder using a spray gun.

This gun applies a negative electrostatic charge to the powder, which makes it attracted to the grounded metal part.

The powder remains attached to the object while it’s cured in an oven, turning the powder coat into a uniform, solid layer.

Anodized oval aluminum extrusions are easy to maintain.

You can clean them regularly with mild detergents and water to get back their luster without the anodic coating flaking or peeling off.

With powder coating, you will notice orange peels, mainly if applied too thick/thin.

Powder coating aluminum profile

Powder coating aluminum profile

Powder-coated oval aluminum extrusions come in a wide range of colors, from satin to gloss finishes.

Anodized oval aluminum extrusions are only available in polished and matte finishes.

Powder-coated oval aluminum extrusions aren’t as vulnerable to acidic pollutants as anodized oval aluminum extrusions.

They have good resistance to chemicals and alkaline cleaning compounds.

Summary:

Anodizing is ideal if you want tight dimensional margins, outstanding corrosion and wear resistance, and an attractive metallic look. If your oval aluminum extrusion needs to dissipate heat, or you’ll subject it to glue or primer application, it is preferred.

A powder coating might be the solution if you’re looking for vibrant colors or unique textures that will last, even when exposed to the elements. It also offers relatively good protection at a lower cost than anodizing.

Does Anodizing Increase The Wear Resistance Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

Yes, anodizing provides oval aluminum extrusions with outstanding corrosion and wear resistance.

The process results in forming an additional oxide layer that is thicker than the one occurring naturally.

Meaning, the oval aluminum extrusions will have higher levels of wear resistance. Your oval aluminum extrusions will not be easily damaged or affected by scratches and nicks.

Our anodizing facilities are regularly inspected to ensure that there are no faults during production.

All this is done to ensure that you have a durable aluminum extrusion product.

Which Is The Best Alloy For Oval Aluminum Extrusions?

We use aluminum as 1000series ~ 7000series

These alloys are the best option for extrusions as they provide peak-quality finishes. We use them for both standard and custom oval aluminum extrusions.

These alloys also have excellent electrical conductivity properties.

Additional features are excellent corrosion resistance after heat treatment.

They are suitable for:

  • Secondary oval aluminum extrusion applications which require hard coating, dipping, color, or lustrous and clear finishes.

Normally, depending on your unique application requirements, our technicians will help you choose the best aluminum alloy.

Are There Colored Oval Aluminum Extrusions?

Yes, oval aluminum extrusions are available in various colors, including silver, white, bronze, gold, etc.

We anodize all our oval aluminum extrusions.

This electrochemical process is often the production of colored aluminum oxide layers on the product’s surface.

Thus, the existence of bronze shades, e.g., gold, black, and clear.

In cases where there is a physical or chemical difference on the oval aluminum extrusion’s surface, color variations may inherently occur.

We can also provide custom finishes.

We can match your custom colors with the use of color chips or RAL numbers technology. Hence, supplying you with two-tone finishes.

What Are The Possible Temper For Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

First, it is important you understand what temper means. Processing oval aluminum extrusions and other extrusions in general to enhance their mechanical properties is “tempering.”

A letter and number after the series designation indicate the type of processing an alloy has undergone.

So, for example, you’ll see 6061 T6 as a descriptor of a widely used aluminum alloy.

An aluminum alloy will go through one of five types of tempering. The most commonly represented by:

  • T to mean thermally treated, a solution heat-treatment followed by aging

Textbooks list ten main types of thermal temper, some of which get divided into subcategories. However, when looking at oval aluminum extrusions, the four possible ones are:

  • T3 – Solution heated-treated, followed by cold working to increase strength
  • T4 – Solution heated-treated then aged naturally
  • T5 – Cooled rather than quenched, followed by oven aging
  • T6 – Solution heated-treated and oven-aged

Are There Standard Dimensions Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

There are no standard dimensions for oval aluminum extrusion profiles.

We can customize the oval aluminum extrusion dimensions according to your unique requirements.

  • A general thickness of 0.6mm to 5mm.
  • A diameter of 5mm to 20mm.
  • Again, the length can be up to 26 meters

Which Are The Optional Machining For Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

We provide various secondary operations and finishing services like stamping, drilling, cutting, welding, etc.

Some frequently requested optional machining for oval aluminum extrusions are:

  • Anodized machining for enhanced corrosion and wear resistance.
  • Powder/paint coating to provide a wide range of colors.
  • Mill finishes that do not have additional modifications.

The natural finish of aluminum extrusion as they are extruded from the extruder die tool is the mill finish.

When exposed to moisture or air, mill finish oval aluminum extrusions will oxidize with aluminum oxide powder.

The mill finishes oval aluminum extrusions can be painted or field primed to specific requirements.

They are shiny and almost mirror-like, with manufacturing lines that can be seen.

Other optional machining finishes are ready upon your request—for example, sublimation(Wood finish), bending, punching, and cutting.

Do Oval Aluminum Extrusion Have Standard Wall Thickness?

Yes, oval aluminum extrusions have a standard for Wall thickness.

Offer oval aluminum extrusions in varying widths and thicknesses to accommodate the different types of applications.

These vary depending on the production process involved, i.e., powder-coated or anodized.

The standard thickness for powder-coated oval aluminum extrusions is 40um to 120um, and the general thickness is 0.6mm to 5mm thick.

The anodized layer thickness is, on the other hand, 25um to 8um thick.

How Do You Determine The Tolerance Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

The term “tolerance” is ubiquitous in the industry.

This is precisely because of the inherent assumption that accurate dimension is simply not achievable.

Allowances for dimensional or property variances – tolerances – vary depending on how a product is used; its quality expectation, safety requirements, and lifecycle, among other user, needs.

Tolerance is determined by inspection of the following parameters:

  • Curved surfaces
  • Wall thickness
  • Surface texture, i.e., roughness or smoothness
  • Length
  • Cross-section
  • Diameter
  • Twist
  • Straightness
  • Flatness

We are fully aware that each oval aluminum extrusion has unique features that are critical to its performance.

Besides, we tighten the tolerance requirements to achieve functional requirements, form and fit required for application.

We recommend the following general guidelines in this process:-

  • Angularity varies depending on surface size and Wall thickness. However, the available variation is between ±2 degrees and ±1 degrees.
  • The general straightness for standard tolerance is 0.0125 inches per foot.
  • The general standard tolerance for twists is ½ degree for each foot.
  • For a specified dimension, the wall thickness standard tolerance is ±10%.
  • Use ± 0.008 inches as the standard tolerance for the cross-section dimensions.

Do You Have MOQ Requirements For Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

Yes.

Our minimum order quantities are low and flexible. It typically ranges between fifty to a hundred units depending on the oval aluminum extrusion size.

We can also accommodate smaller runs, but you may incur additional charges from Packaging and shipping or die charges.

We never hold inventory for very small orders because we only run oval aluminum extrusions on order.

If you are a small volume buyer, the minimum order quantity may present a hurdle as it may be expensive.

We recommend that you order a sample first before making a bulk purchase.

The MOQ exists because of some very significant technical and economic reasons.

Sometimes you may need to check the dimensions to make sure they are of the correct measurements before you go on a bull run. Ordering a sample might help.

This will prove the dimensions and design.

Meanwhile, we will hold off the bulk run until you feel satisfied.

Which Are The Common Industry Standards For Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

The common industry standards to which our oval aluminum extrusions conform are the following:-

EN 12392:2016 EU/68/2014

These standards describe the benchmark to be met by aluminum and aluminum alloys intended for applications in high-pressure scenarios.

EN 12020-2.

These standards describe the requirements to be met by aluminum alloys such as 6005A, 6005, 6063, and 6060 for complex shapes.

Products subject to these standards, like oval aluminum extrusions, are applied in the following:-

  • Products with considerably low tolerance requirements.
  • Wall profiles
  • Door and window frames.

What Is The Thickness Of Oval Aluminum Extrusion?

First, the overall thickness of oval aluminum extrusion will vary depending on your unique requirements.

So, if you need special thickness, just inform us so that we customize the die for you.

Of course, this is after calculating the cost.

Under normal circumstances, the thickness of oval aluminum extrusion depends on:

  • Normal thickness from the extrusion process which varies from 06mm to 5.0mm
  • Surface treatment such as anodized protection whose thickness may vary from 8 – 25 um. Also, there is powder coating whose thickness may vary from 40 – 120 um.
