Aluminium Hexagonal Rods, For Construction, Single Piece Length: 6 meter

Product Details

Aluminium Hexagonal Rods are very flexible, this is a major advantage. This may not be possible with all other materials.  Because of its brilliant flexibility, Aluminium Hexagonal Rods does not require so many fastenings which is another advantage as it is much easier to install. The reason behind the popularity as a metal, lies in its non-toxic, light weight, recyclable properties.  It is thus not hard to imagine that they are fast replacing plastic and steel rods wherever they can. It is manufactured using multiple processes like extrusion, coiling and rolling or drawing directly from molten aluminium.  These methods can elongate the aluminium into bar-shaped pieces or circular pieces which may be put inside machines to produce different shapes for all kinds of applications. It is one of the most ubiquitous and widely used rod now.  Nowadays people prefer to use it over other metal rods because of their chemical properties. Aluminium rods are used across a wide range of industries, mostly because this is such a lightweight metal and is fairly easy to drill through. When the aluminium has been twisted into a rod, however, this can make the drilling process a little more difficult.  Fortunately, even the most novice of workers will be able to drill through this metal, providing that they have access to the right tools.    Features:  It is light in weight and about one-third of the weight of steel. This is why aluminium is used for making automobiles because it lowers the dead weight as well as the energy consumption but heightens the load capacity. By changing composition of aluminium alloys, its strength can be changed. Aluminium produces a protective coating of oxide which is known to be highly resistant to corrosion or rusting. This property can be further upgraded by using surface treatment processes like painting, lacquering etc. This makes it very useful for application in which protection or conservation is a must. Aluminium is also an excellent thermal and electrical conductor. It is twice as good as copper in terms of being a conductor. Perhaps this is the reason why aluminium is being used extensively for major power transmission projects. Besides, aluminium is a great reflector of light and heat; these advantages along with its low weight make it perfect for manufacturing light fittings. This metal is highly ductile having low melting point and low density, making it easy to mould it into different forms. The aluminium rod is most extensively used in electrical transmission lines. In this market, there is perhaps no other metal which is as extensively used as aluminium. It is most cost-effective when it comes to providing power.    Advantages:  Corrosion resistant Electrical conductivity Density As an alloy A reflector Recyclable Environment friendly Weather resistant
