Aluminum-silicon alloy (ALSi20) is a high-performance metal composite known for its excellent wear resistance, thermal conductivity, and lightweight properties. It is widely used in aerospace engineering, automotive manufacturing, electronic components, and precision industrial applications. Due to its superior strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability, aluminum-silicon alloy plays a crucial role in sustainable material solutions and advanced engineering processes.
Product Description
The Aluminum-Silicon Alloy (ALSi20) is an aluminum-based alloy containing 18–20% silicon. It is widely used in applications that require high strength, wear resistance, and excellent casting properties. The addition of silicon enhances the alloy's fluidity, increases its hardness and strength, and provides excellent wear resistance.
Product Features
- High Silicon Content: Increases the alloy's hardness and wear resistance.
- Good Castability: Provides excellent fluidity, ideal for casting complex shapes.
- Brittleness: More brittle, making it suitable for applications where toughness is less critical.
- Adjustable Alloy Composition: Can be customized to meet different technical requirements.
Applications
- Automotive Industry: Used for casting engine blocks, cylinder heads, crankcases, and other critical components, especially in parts requiring high hardness and wear resistance.
- Construction Industry: Used for making aluminum alloy frames and structural components, particularly in environments where high corrosion resistance and strength are needed.
- Mechanical Manufacturing: Suitable for manufacturing mechanical parts and gears that require wear resistance.
- Aerospace: Used for manufacturing lightweight and high-temperature resistant components. Despite its brittleness, it performs well in certain specialized parts.
