Aluminum Threaded Rod
Aluminum Threaded Rod is a metal rod with full threading, typically made from high-strength aluminum alloys. It features excellent lightweight, corrosion resistance, non-magnetic properties, and a smooth surface. Its main applications include electronic products, aerospace components, and fasteners in construction and mechanical structures. Due to aluminum's lightweight properties, it is lighter than traditional steel bolts, making it suitable for applications where weight reduction is required without compromising strength and performance.
Aluminum Threaded Rod Features
- Non-magnetic: The non-magnetic property of aluminum threaded rods makes them suitable for environments sensitive to electromagnetic interference, such as in electronic devices or communication equipment.
- Corrosion Resistance: Aluminum alloys possess strong corrosion resistance, especially in harsh environments like humidity, salt spray, etc. They are more durable than steel and are widely used in marine environments, industrial equipment, and buildings.
- Lightweight: Compared to steel, aluminum is lighter, reducing the overall weight of aluminum threaded rods, which in turn lowers transportation and installation costs. This makes them ideal for aerospace, automotive, and lightweight structures.
- Smooth Surface: Aluminum has a smooth surface, which helps prevent dust and contaminants from adhering. It also facilitates further surface treatments such as anodizing or coating to enhance appearance and corrosion resistance.
Aluminum Threaded Rod Sizes and Specifications
Aluminum threaded rods typically come with standard N.C. (National Coarse) threads and can be customized in length according to requirements. Common lengths include 12", 18", 24", and 36", with special custom lengths available up to 144". Common diameters include 5/8", but other sizes can be provided as needed. The threads per inch of aluminum threaded rods typically meet industry standards.
