tube

Material ZK61M-T5 Magnesium Alloy Tube are made from a kind of alloy of magnesium, zinc, and zirconium that undergoes heat treatment to give it special properties. The base material, ZK61M, is a deformed magnesium alloy with a chemical composition mainly composed of magnesium, with additions of zinc at 5.5–6.5% and zirconium at 0.45–0.9%. It also contains up to 0.05% copper, Cu, and up to 0.1% manganese, Mn. The denomination "T5" designates that after the tubes have been formed at high temperatures, they are heat-treated and artificially aged. The heat treatment will be very important for improving mechanical properties and performance in ZK61M-T5 Magnesium Alloy Pipe. The T5-treated magnesium alloy tubes show great tensile and yield strengths; they are able to resist heavy tension and pressure without failure. They still maintain adequate plasticity which can withstand many deformation processes. Moreover, corrosion resistance has been enhanced by the appropriate addition of the alloying element and optimization during heat treatment. In this manner, they fit for application even in an atmosphere of moisture, acids, or alkaline conditions. Properties such as those mentioned above have madeZK61M-T5 Magnesium Alloy Tubes useful in many different applications. These tubes are utilized in the aerospace industries for aircraft lightweight, fuel efficiency, and performance improvement. In automotive, its excellent heat conduction helps in maintaining the temperature within the vehicle. Moreover, high strength and resistance to fatigue make them ideal for manufacturing, especially in equipment that undergoes continuous vibration.

In addition to the common round tubes, we can also make square tubes or customise special tubes according to your drawings. The same goes for Magnesium Alloy Plates and Magnesium Alloy Rods.
