Aluminum Clad Steel

What is aluminum clad steel sheet

Alumium clad steel is a high-performance composite material made by combining aluminum and steel through a special process. Aluminium clad steel joints combines the lightness and corrosion resistance of aluminum with the high strength and high rigidity of steel, showing unique advantages in many fields.

It can firmly connect the steel main hull and the aluminum alloy superstructure together, achieving a reliable transition between the two different metal structures.

What is manufacturing process

The core manufacturing process of this aluminum cladding sheet is explosive bonding, which uses the instantaneous high pressure and high temperature generated by the explosion of explosives to achieve metallurgical bonding between aluminum and steel in the solid state. This method can process large-area panels and is suitable for the combination of materials with large differences in thermal expansion coefficients such as aluminum and steel.

Application

Electrolytic aluminum, transition joints, ships, aerospace, instruments, cryogenic engineering, etc.

Applications

Our aluminum-steel transition joints can realize direct welding between aluminum alloy parts and steel structures. They are widely used in shipbuilding, high-speed rail trains, automobiles and other industries. They are mainly used to build the superstructure of the hull or car body, so as to reduce weight and improve transportation capacity.

Advantages

1. The aluminum-steel structural transition joint has the characteristics of high strength and resistance to electrochemical corrosion, which further improves the reliability and life of the product.

2. Compared with traditional rivet or bolt connections, the use of aluminum-steel transition joints can directly achieve the connection between aluminum alloy and steel structure by welding, without the need for drilling and other work.

3. The aluminum layer protects against corrosive environments such as the atmosphere and seawater, while the steel layer provides wear resistance.

4. Aluminum-steel composite panels can reduce material costs by reducing the amount of precious metals (such as stainless steel).

5. The density of aluminum (2.7g/cm³) is about 1/3 of that of steel (7.85g/cm³), while steel is 3-5 times stronger than aluminum.
