Manufactured under strict quality controls, this 3.5" nominal size seamless aluminum pipe boasts an actual Outside Diameter of 1.653" and a precise Wall Thickness of 0.143", conforming to Schedule 40 dimensions. Composed of Aluminum 6061, a precipitation-hardening alloy, it exhibits excellent mechanical properties, including good weldability and machinability, along with superior corrosion resistance, particularly in marine environments. This makes it a preferred choice for structural frameworks, fluid conveyance systems, heat exchangers, and components requiring a balance of strength and lightness.
This component strictly adheres to the tolerances, material specifications, and quality benchmarks set by the world's leading industrial manufacturers.
1. Ensure proper pipe end preparation, including deburring and cleaning. 2. Select appropriate joining method (welding, brazing, or mechanical fittings) compatible with Aluminum 6061. 3. Follow manufacturer's guidelines for the chosen joining process, paying close attention to temperature controls and filler material selection. 4. Conduct pressure testing to verify joint integrity before final installation.
