Aluminium 5086 22D Pipe Bend Pipe Fittings

Aluminium 5086 22D pipe bend pipe fittings are constructed of a combination of alloy materials that create the strongest and most reliable. The main component is 3.6-4.5% magnesium and 4.5-6% manganese, used to support its exceptionally strong structure, making it ideal for use in applications where resistance from corrosion is essential. By utilising 0.2% chromium and other trace elements, the aluminium can further reduce its vulnerability to corroding agents such as salt water or acid rain. These alloying additions also result in improved formability, higher heat conductivity, and melting temperature needed for some industrial applications.

5086 22D Aluminium Pipe Bend Pipe Fittings are commonplace in food production and process piping industries. With a combination of low weight, corrosion resistance, and good electrical conductivity, it is frequently the material of choice for a number of applications requiring pipe fittings. Its formability allows for bends and curves without sacrificing strength or durability. Due to its non-toxicity and low weight, it has become popular in the off-shore oil industry, making installations safe and easy even in potentially hazardous locations. In addition to its environmental friendliness, aluminium offers excellent long-term performance even with cyclic loading meaning it is especially well suited for applications that require frequent temperature changes and pressure variations.
