4000 Series Aluminum Alloy: Key Properties & Specifications
1.
4000 series alloys are silicon-rich (Si: 5–12%) with additions of copper, magnesium, and manganese.
| Grade | Aluminum (%) | Silicon (Si) (%) | Copper (Cu) (%) | Magnesium (Mg) (%) | Iron (Fe) (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4032 | Bal. | 11.0–13.5 | 0.50–1.1 | 0.80–1.3 | ≤0.50 |
| 4043 | Bal. | 4.5–6.0 | ≤0.30 | ≤0.05 | ≤0.80 |
| 4047 | Bal. | 11.0–13.0 | ≤0.30 | ≤0.10 | ≤0.80 |
| 4145 | Bal. | 9.3–10.7 | 3.3–4.7 | ≤0.15 | ≤0.80 |
Trace elements (Zn, Ti, Mn) vary by grade. Request full material datasheets for details.
2.
Density : 2.65–2.75 g/cm³ Melting Range : 575–630°C (lower melting point due to high Si content). Thermal Expansion : 19.5–22.5 µm/m·K (20–100°C). Thermal Conductivity : 130–160 W/m·K (annealed). Tensile Strength : 150–380 MPa (dependent on temper and grade). Elongation : 1–10% (varies with processing).
3.
High-Temperature Stability : 4032 alloy retains strength up to 200°C (ideal for pistons). Weldability : 4043/4047 alloys reduce cracking in TIG/MIG welding of 6000/7000 series aluminum. Brazing Efficiency : 4343/4045 cladding alloys enable flux-free brazing for heat exchangers. Wear Resistance : High silicon content enhances durability in automotive components.
Applications of 4000 Series Aluminum Alloys
