Colored Aluminum Sheet Metal tor Race Cars

 The colored aluminum sheet metal for race cars are used for the four card doors, hood cover, trunk and fenders. The race car aluminium sheets include 6016, 6022, 6111, 6181, 5754, 5182 and 5052, among which, the inner panels of the body are basically made of 5182 alloy and 6181A alloy, while the outer panels of the body are mainly made of 6016, 6111 and 6022 alloys.

6000 series aluminum alloys are currently the most widely used aluminum alloys for automobile sheet metal parts in the automobile industry. They have excellent formability, high strength performance, corrosion resistance, hemming performance, high surface performance, etc. At the same time, after painting and baking, the strength performance has been improved to a certain extent.

In the mid-1970s, the United States took the lead in developing 6009 and 6010 aluminum alloys. The paint hardening properties of 6009-T4 aluminum alloys and 6010-T4 aluminum alloys are better than those of 2036-T4 aluminum alloys, and the alloys have excellent corrosion resistance and weldability.

In the early 1980s, North America and Europe developed high-Cu 6111 aluminum alloys and low-Cu 6016 aluminum alloys respectively. 6111 aluminum alloys were significantly improved in paint hardenability and formability on the basis of 6010 aluminum alloys. 6016 aluminum alloy shows better formability and corrosion resistance.

Al6016 is widely used in ABS, but the heat treatment process is complicated, and pre-aging treatment T4P must be carried out between solution treatment and paint baking treatment to obtain good performance. Because it should have good formability before stamping, and the strength can be rapidly increased during the paint baking process after stamping, so it has high dent resistance.

Among many aluminum alloys, 5000 and 6000 aluminum alloys have excellent application effects in the field of automobile manufacturing. Welcome to leave message below to inquire what you need.
