Frequently asked questions (FAQ) about aluminum U-profiles

1. What advantages do aluminum U-profiles offer compared to steel profiles?

Aluminum U profiles are lighter than steel profiles, making it easier to transport and install. They also offer good to very good performance Corrosion resistance (depending on material) due to the natural oxide layer of aluminum. This makes them ideal for applications in moist or corrosive environments. In addition, aluminum profiles are easier to machine and are more aesthetically pleasing because they can be polished or anodized.

2. What dimensions are aluminum U-profiles available in?

Aluminum U profiles are available in a variety of dimensions. Standard sizes range from 10 x 10 x 1.5 mm up to 60x80x10mm. This variability allows it to be used in different applications, from light construction to heavy industrial projects.

3. How resistant are aluminum U-profiles to corrosion?

Aluminum U profiles are used in many areas of application Corrosion-resistant because aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer. This layer prevents the attack of moisture and chemical substances that could lead to corrosion. Additional surface treatments such as anodizing can further increase corrosion resistance.

4. Which applications are particularly suitable for aluminum U-profiles?

Aluminum U profiles are versatile and suitable for numerous applications. They are often used in construction for frames, columns and beams. In mechanical engineering they are used in light and stable machines and devices. They are valued in furniture design for their aesthetic and functional advantages. They are also popular in transportation, particularly in the design of vehicles and trailers to reduce overall weight and improve fuel efficiency.
