What is Aluminum Steel Clad Plate?
Aluminum steel clad plate is a kind of clad material with high strength and good toughness. Its appearance greatly improves the bearing capacity and seismic performance of buildings. Aluminum has low density, high plasticity, corrosion resistance, easy processing, wear resistance, and electrical conductivity, while steel has high strength, good plasticity and toughness, and good economy, but it is not corrosion resistant. Aluminum steel clad plates are the combination of the two materials. A material that combines advantages.

Features of Aluminum Steel Clad Plate:
The features of aluminum steel clad plates are:
Light weight: The weight of the aluminum steel clad plate is only about 1/3 of the traditional pure aluminum plate, so it can greatly reduce the load of the building and reduce the structural cost.
Corrosion resistance: The surface of the aluminum steel clad plate has good corrosion resistance, which can effectively prevent the erosion of buildings by corrosive gases such as acid rain and salt spray.
High strength: Aluminum steel clad plates have very high strength and can be made into various structural parts or parts with complex shapes, uneven thickness and large loads.
High temperature resistance: Aluminum steel clad plates can withstand high temperatures up to 1000°C, so they are very useful in many high temperature applications.
Wear resistance: The wear resistance of aluminum steel clad plates is very good, it can effectively reduce friction, reduce wear and prolong the service life of buildings.
Fatigue resistance: Due to the low elastic modulus and good toughness (elongation greater than 25%) of the aluminum/steel clad plate, it has good shock resistance and has a good absorption effect on impact loads.

FAQs of Aluminum Steel Clad Plate:
Q:What is aluminum clad steel?
A:Aluminum clad steel wire, often abbreviated as AW or AS or AC, is an electrical conductor consisting of an inner steel core and an outer aluminum cladding. Aluminum clad steel wire is a bimetallic material in which aluminum is continuously and evenly coated on a steel core.
Q:What does stainless steel aluminum clad mean?
A:What does "clad" mean? Cladding is a technique for making cookware. It involves layering sheets of metal and bonding them together. The most common is sandwiching sheets of aluminum (or copper) between sheets of stainless steel.
Q:What is clad steel plate?
A:Clad steel plates are made by joining various metals such as stainless steel and aluminum, titanium and aluminum, etc., depending on the application. We have successfully developed wide-strip roll-joining technology and established a system for mass production of high-quality clad products.
