China Aluminum Strip for Pipe - 8011 Grade from Reliable Suppliers and Factory

Aluminum strips for pipes, specifically the 8011-grade aluminum strips, are essential components in the production of aluminum plastic composite pipes. These multi-layer tubes include PEX, PERT, PE, and PPR pipes, offering versatility and durability. The primary alloys used for manufacturing tube aluminum strips are 8011, 3003, and 800As a leading factory in China, we supply high-quality aluminum strips, meeting the demands of various pipe applications. Trust our expertise as reliable suppliers to provide top-notch aluminum solutions for your needs

    Chemical Composition

    The main alloying elements of 8011 aluminum strip are silicon (Si) and iron (Fe), with a silicon content of 0.5 - 0.9% and an iron content of 0.6 - 1.0%. The remaining is mainly aluminum, along with trace amounts of other elements such as copper, magnesium, and manganese.

    Mechanical Properties

    In the O temper (fully annealed), the tensile strength is 70 - 110 MPa, the yield strength is 30 - 50 MPa, and the elongation is 20 - 40%. These properties make it have good formability and ductility, which is conducive to the processing and manufacturing of pipes. The mechanical Properties

    Can be customized according to your special request too!

    Dimensions

    The thickness of 8011 aluminum strip for pipes is usually in the range of 0.1 -1.0 mm, and the width can be 10 - 300mm. For example, some common thicknesses are 0.21 mm with a tolerance of ±0.02 mm, and widths can range from 20 - 300 mm with a tolerance of ±0.2 mm.

    Advantages in Pipe Manufacturing

    • Excellent Formability: It has good roll - forming properties, which can be easily formed into various pipe shapes, and is suitable for processes such as welding, including TIG welding, laser welding, overlap welding, and butt welding.
    • High Corrosion Resistance: The alloy has good corrosion - resistant properties, which can ensure the service life of the pipe in different environments.
    • Good Adhesion: After special chemical degreasing treatment, it has good adhesion with polyethylene, so it is widely used in the production of multilayer pipes.

    Storage Instructions for Aluminum Pipe Strip

    1. General Requirement: Pipe Mill Aluminum Strip requires strict environmental and handling control to maintain surface quality, flatness and mechanical properties.
    2. Storage Environment: Store in a dry, ventilated, and covered warehouse with humidity below 60%. Avoid direct sunlight, rain, and corrosive gases. Keep away from acids, alkalis, chemicals and moisture sources.
    3. Stacking Method: Place strips on clean wooden or plastic pallets. Do not stack directly on the ground. Maintain reasonable stacking height to prevent deformation or indentation.
    4. Surface Protection: Separate layers with protective paper or film to avoid scratches. Keep the storage area clean and dust-free.
    5. Handling & Inspection: Handle gently during loading and unloading to prevent edge damage and bending. Regularly inspect for oxidation, discoloration or deformation.
    6. Purpose: Proper storage ensures stable performance during pipe making and extends product service life.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q1: What is the chemical composition of 8011 aluminum strip?
    The main alloying elements of 8011 aluminum strip are silicon (Si) at 0.5 - 0.9% and iron (Fe) at 0.6 - 1.0%, with the remainder being primarily aluminum along with trace amounts of copper, magnesium, and manganese.
    Q2: What are the mechanical properties of 8011 aluminum strip in O temper?
    In the fully annealed O temper, it features a tensile strength of 70 - 110 MPa, a yield strength of 30 - 50 MPa, and an elongation rate of 20 - 40%. These properties can also be customized according to your specific requirements.
    Q3: What are the standard dimensions of 8011 aluminum strip for pipes?
    Typically, the thickness ranges from 0.1 to 1.0 mm (with common sizes like 0.21 mm having a tolerance of ±0.02 mm) and the width ranges from 10 to 300 mm (with a standard tolerance of ±0.2 mm).
    Q4: Why is 8011 aluminum strip suitable for pipe manufacturing?
    It offers excellent formability for various welding methods (TIG, laser, overlap, and butt welding), high corrosion resistance to ensure long-term durability, and outstanding adhesion with polyethylene for multilayer pipe production.
    Q5: How should aluminum pipe strip be stored to prevent damage?
    It must be stored in a dry, ventilated covered warehouse with humidity below 60%. Keep it away from moisture, acids, and alkalis. Always stack the strips on clean pallets off the ground, use protective interlayers to prevent scratches, and handle with care.
