A wheel consists of a hub and a tire mounted outside the hub. The tire directly contacts the ground and carries the full weight of the car, which ultimately transmits the engine power to the road. The role of the wheel hub is to support the body, and it is an important component for the weight of the body to be transmitted to the road surface. The use of 6061 aluminum alloy wheels plays an important role in car safety.
6061 aluminum alloy truck wheel hub
Truck wheel hub can use 6061 aluminum plate in annealed, just quenched and hot state with medium plasticity and good weldability; 6061 aluminum alloy has good machinability after quenching and cold work hardening, and has high strength and certain heat resistance. For working parts below 150 ℃. 6061 aluminum plate for truck wheel hub has the advantages of low density, high strength, good processing performance, etc., and has good heat resistance.
Advantages of 6061 aluminum alloy truck wheel hub
- 6061 aluminum alloy truck wheel hub reduces the body weight and saves energy consumption;
- Good roundness: the accuracy is as high as two thousandths of an inch. When the hub is running, the balance is good, which can eliminate the general body bumps and steering wheel shaking.
- Good heat dissipation: at 20 degrees Celsius, the thermal conductivity of metal: aluminum alloy is 0.53, steel is 0.18, chromium is 0.16, and the thermal conductivity of aluminum alloy is 3 times that of steel, and the heat dissipation effect is better. When the car is running at high speed, a lot of heat will be generated due to the friction between the tire and the ground. The aluminum alloy wheel can keep the tire at a proper temperature, prolong the service life of the tire, and reduce the risk of tire blowout.
- Sturdy and durable: The aluminum alloy wheels have good impact resistance, tensile strength and thermal strength indicators.
- Beautiful appearance: Due to the limitation of production methods, general steel wheels are monotonous and dull in form and lack beautification, while aluminum alloy wheels have a variety of styles, plus the effect of luster and color, which enhances the beauty of the car.
- Light and brisk operation: due to the good roundness, the steering wheel can be controlled at will, and it is brisk and flexible when turning.
