Good AdhesionAfter special chemical degreasing treatment, it has good adhesion with polyethylene, so it is widely used in the production of multilayer pipes.
Storage Instructions for Aluminum Pipe Strip
1
General RequirementPipe Mill Aluminum Strip requires strict environmental and handling control to maintain surface quality, flatness and mechanical properties.
2
Storage EnvironmentStore in a dry, ventilated, and covered warehouse with humidity below 60%. Avoid direct sunlight, rain, and corrosive gases. Keep away from acids, alkalis, chemicals and moisture sources.
3
Stacking MethodPlace strips on clean wooden or plastic pallets. Do not stack directly on the ground. Maintain reasonable stacking height to prevent deformation or indentation.
4
Surface ProtectionSeparate layers with protective paper or film to avoid scratches. Keep the storage area clean and dust-free.
5
Handling & InspectionHandle gently during loading and unloading to prevent edge damage and bending. Regularly inspect for oxidation, discoloration or deformation.
6
PurposeProper storage ensures stable performance during pipe making and extends product service life.

Frequently Asked Questions
QWhat is 8011 aluminum strip mainly used for in pipe manufacturing?
8011 aluminum strip is widely used in the production of multilayer pipes, including PE-AL-PE composite pipes. Its excellent formability, high corrosion resistance, and good adhesion with polyethylene make it the preferred material for pipe mill applications.
QWhat are the standard thickness and width ranges for 8011 aluminum pipe strip?
The standard thickness ranges from 0.1 to 1.0 mm, and the width ranges from 10 to 300 mm. A common specification is 0.21 mm thickness with ±0.02 mm tolerance and 20 - 300 mm width with ±0.2 mm tolerance. Custom dimensions are also available upon request.
QCan the mechanical properties of 8011 aluminum strip be customized?
Yes. While the standard O temper specification offers a tensile strength of 70 - 110 MPa, yield strength of 30 - 50 MPa, and elongation of 20% - 40%, the mechanical properties can be customized to meet specific project or processing requirements upon request.
QWhat welding methods are compatible with 8011 aluminum strip?
8011 aluminum strip is compatible with multiple welding processes, including TIG welding, laser welding, overlap welding, and butt welding. Its excellent roll-forming properties allow it to be shaped into various pipe forms efficiently during the manufacturing process.
QHow should 8011 aluminum pipe strip be stored to maintain its quality?
It should be stored in a dry, ventilated warehouse with humidity below 60%, away from direct sunlight, rain, acids, alkalis, and corrosive gases. Strips should be placed on wooden or plastic pallets, with protective paper or film between layers to prevent scratches and surface damage.
QWhy does 8011 aluminum strip have good adhesion with polyethylene?
After undergoing a special chemical degreasing treatment, the surface of 8011 aluminum strip achieves excellent bonding compatibility with polyethylene. This treatment removes surface contaminants and enhances surface energy, which is essential for producing high-quality multilayer composite pipes.
