Top 5 Aluminum Coil Applications You Need to Know

1. Automotive Manufacturing

The automotive industry consumes 18% of global aluminum coil production according to CRU International. Our Aluminum tube series 5052 and 6061 are specifically engineered for:

• Body panels (30% weight reduction vs steel)
• Heat exchangers with 20% better thermal conductivity
• EV battery enclosures meeting IP67 standards

Tesla's Model 3 uses 45kg of aluminum coil components per vehicle, demonstrating the material's critical role in lightweighting strategies.

Technical Advantages

2. Aerospace Applications

Airbus A350 airframes contain 20% aluminum alloys by weight. Our 2024-T3 and 7075-T6 coils meet:

• AMS-QQ-A-250/4 specifications
• MIL-STD-889 corrosion resistance requirements
• FAA flammability standards

Critical applications include wing skins, fuselage panels, and landing gear components where fatigue resistance is paramount.

3. Building & Construction

The global construction aluminum market will reach $82B by 2027 (Grand View Research). Our architectural series offers:

• PVDF coatings with 30-year warranties
• Class A fire ratings (ASTM E84)
• Custom widths up to 2,600mm

The Shanghai Tower utilized 120 tons of our aluminum coils for its curtain wall system, achieving LEED Platinum certification.

4. Marine Engineering

5083 and 5086 alloys dominate shipbuilding due to:

• Seawater corrosion resistance (ASTM G67)
• Weldability with 90% joint efficiency
• -50°C to 150°C operational range

Cruise liners like Royal Caribbean's Symphony class use our marine-grade coils for superstructures and decking.

5. Electrical Applications

Aluminum coils conduct electricity at 61% IACS standard. Key uses include:

• Transformer windings (IEEE C57.91)
• Busbar systems (IEC 61439)
• Solar panel frames

Our 1350-O temper coils show 0.0277 Ω·mm²/m resistivity – ideal for power transmission projects.
