How much weight/people can a 12ft aluminum boat hold?and if anyone knows how much weight can a 6.5hp motor push around
You should have a small metal plate that is riveted into the rear transom that will tell you what the max. capacity, persons and weight. If this is absent, I would answer the question by saying that if your boat is of the John boat variety, (square front end) and pretty shallow sides, I would think twice about 2 large people that weigh 225+. If your boat is of the deep-V variety with deeper sides, then two people with gear would probably be fine. Any way you look at it, a 10 boat is a maximum of twp persons.
what's the temperature tolerance of aluminum sheets?
aluminum is a kind of silver white metal,melting point:660.4℃, boiling point: 2467℃,density: 2.70 g/cm?,very light, about 1/4 of iron's density.it has low hardness and good ductility, which makes it suitable for being pulled into threadlets or pressed into aluminum foils, and the later is usually used for packaging candy and cigarette. it has good electrical and temperature conductivity. it's used for the manufacture of electric wire and cable in electric power industry, and for the manufacture of cooker in daily life bined with the magnesium , copper,zinc,tin,manganese,chromium,zirconium,silicon and other elments,it can formulate various alloys that is broadly used for the manufacture of airplane,car,ship, materials of daily living equipment and the doors and windows of construction industry.aluminum is one of the best reflectors of heat and light, so it is used as thermal insulation material and the manufacture of reflecting mirror in the reflecting telescope.
I have tried every possible method that I could find on the web for cleaning aluminum, tungsten, filler wire. Nothing has seemed to work. I've tried looking for leaks in the argon line. I'm getting decent welds but there is gunk in the welds for sure. I'm worried about overall strength of the welds. Does anybody out there know of a tried and true method for cleaning aluminum, tungsten, filler etc. that is sure to work? If I can follow that method and still have problems It could possibly be a problem with the machine. Any help would be much appreciated.
Preweld cleaning requires two operations: oil/grease removal and oxide removal. As below, remove oils and greases first, then remove the oxide. Don’t reverse this order. Take the following steps before welding aluminum: 1. Remove oil, grease, and water vapor using an organic solvent such as acetone or a mild alkaline solution like a strong soap. You may also use citrus-based degreasers, but be sure to rinse and dry the part before welding. 2. Remove surface oxides with a stainless steel wire brush (used only for aluminum) or strong alkaline or acid. Many welding suppliers sell oxide-removal solutions in spray or squeeze bottles for local application. Exercise extreme care when handling these solutions, and again, rinse and dry the part before welding. 3. Assemble the joint. If it won't be welded immediately, cover the joint with brown Kraft paper to prevent dirt and grit in the air from getting into the joint. 4. Keep the aluminum dry and at room temperature. 5. Weld within a few days. Clean the joint again if it isn't welded within that time. Good luck!!!
im making a presentation and once i read through it it feels like its leading up to something but then goes flat. any ideas. my project ' steel cars compared to aluminium'
Aluminium is extremely flammable. We use it in thermite welding and as solid rocket fuel. The Emperor Napoleon carried* an aluminium fork while the lower royalty had to make do with gold forks. *In those days people carried their table wear around with them same as we carry our car keys.
I recently moved into a 1975 house with aluminum wiring. I will be going through and checking/replacing all receptacles and switches with CO/ALR rated ones as I don't have a budget right now to rewire the house. I am wondering if I should be checking all of the ceiling lights as well as some of them would be very difficult to access. Are lights as big a concern with aluminum connections as receptacles? I am sure some of the lights are newer and would have copper wire connected to the aluminum. Should I be concerned about the type of wire nuts used here?Anything else that I should be checking?
There's no problem with aluminum wiring that would require you to rewire your house as long as the proper wire gauge was used. You should replace all of the receptacles and switches with ones rated CO/AL. For lighting, replace the wirenuts with ones rated CO/AL and you'll be fine. From what I remember, Aluminum has a higher resistance than copper so it requires 1 size larger conductors. Aluminum also oxidizes faster than copper. If you have aluminum wires in your panel you should turn the main service disconnect off and put some de-oxidizer (you can find it at home improvement stores in the electrical section) where the wire lug is. This oxidation can make a bad connection causing you to lose voltage as the resistance goes up raising the amperage. This will generate more heat. Aluminum also... well its hard to explain... A/C current cycles its power in a sin wave, it causes the wire to vibrate. You will have to tighten all of the lugs on your electric panel periodically. The CO/AL wirenuts and receptacles/switches help prevent the vibration from loosening the connections causing a short and possibly a shock hazard or even a fire.
Yes, aluminum sheets are suitable for aerospace engine components. Aluminum is a widely used material in the aerospace industry due to its favorable properties. It is lightweight, which is crucial for aircraft and spacecraft applications as it helps reduce overall weight and fuel consumption. Additionally, aluminum has excellent thermal conductivity, allowing it to efficiently dissipate heat generated by the engine, which is essential for maintaining optimal operating temperatures. Furthermore, aluminum exhibits good strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and ease of fabrication, making it suitable for various engine components such as casings, housings, and structural elements. However, it is worth noting that not all engine components can be made solely from aluminum sheets, as certain parts may require higher strength materials or specific alloys to withstand extreme temperatures or stresses. Overall, aluminum sheets have proven to be a reliable and commonly used material in aerospace engine components, contributing to the overall performance and efficiency of aerospace engines.
How strong is aluminum per square inch, and at the same time how light is the aluminum per square inch?
we have large aluminium sliding doors and in the summer time they twist and will not open why is this.
The bending radius for aluminum sheets can vary depending on the thickness and alloy of the sheet. Generally, for thinner sheets (around 1-3 mm), the recommended bending radius is approximately 1.5 times the sheet thickness. For thicker sheets (over 3 mm), the bending radius can be increased to around 2.5 times the sheet thickness. However, it is important to note that these are general guidelines and the specific bending radius may need to be adjusted based on the specific application and the desired outcome. It is always recommended to consult with a professional or refer to specific technical data sheets provided by the manufacturer for accurate bending radius information.
