Aluminum alloy is one of the most commonly used materials for mold manufacturing. Aluminum alloy molds have the characteristics of light weight, good processability, high temperature resistance, and wear resistance. Aluminum plates for molds are generally high-strength heat-treatable alloys that need to have good mechanical properties and processability. Aluminum plates that can be used for mold manufacturing include 5052 aluminum plate, 5083 aluminum plate, 6061 aluminum plate, 7075 aluminum plate, 2024 aluminum plate, etc. Flait Aluminum is a professional mold aluminum plate manufacturer, supplying commonly used 5052, 5083, 6061 and 7075 aluminum plates for molds.
5052 aluminum plate and 5083 aluminum plate are commonly used rust-proof aluminum plates. They have medium strength, good cutting performance, and strong corrosion resistance. They are suitable for making molds in marine environments, such as shipbuilding molds and marine structure molds. We can produce 5083 medium-thick aluminum plates and 5083 extra-wide aluminum plates to meet customer needs.
6061 aluminum plate is the most widely used mold aluminum plate. Among them, the 6061 T6 aluminum plate has undergone heat treatment and pre-stretching process to eliminate internal stress, does not deform during processing, has excellent processing performance, excellent welding characteristics and electroplating performance, polishing, easy color film formation, and excellent oxidation effect. 6061 aluminum alloy has higher hardness than 5 series aluminum alloy and is affordable. It is widely used in making molds, including forming molds, fixtures and mold parts.
7075 aluminum plate has excellent strength and hardness and is suitable for making molds that require high strength and wear resistance, such as injection molds and die-casting molds. 7075 medium-thick aluminum plate (thickness 20-100mm) is suitable for shoe molds, high-strength molds, high-strength parts and other fields.
