Aluminum Profiles For Curtain Walls

Aluminum Profiles For Curtain Walls

Aluminum profiles for curtain walls serve as the skeleton of a building's exterior envelope system. Made from aluminum alloy through casting, extrusion, precision cutting, and surface treatment, they secure panels, transfer loads, and directly determine the structural safety, air/water tightness, and energy efficiency of the curtain wall.

Structural Characteristics

 

Multi-chamber design

Sections feature dedicated load-bearing, insulation, drainage, and sealing chambers-each with a distinct role-ensuring both water and air tightness.

01

Thermal break compatible

Can be paired with PA66GF25 glass-fiber reinforced insulation strips. Roll-bonding creates a thermal break that blocks heat/cold transfer, ideal for energy-efficient and ultra-low-energy buildings.

02

Thermal expansion allowance

Nodes reserve gaps for temperature-induced deformation. Combined with flexible connections, this prevents distortion or seal failure from thermal expansion and contraction.

03

Built-in drainage

Integrates equal-pressure drainage channels and water-shedding structures for orderly rainwater discharge, eliminating water accumulation in chambers.

04

Standardized interfaces

Unified bolt grooves, gasket channels, and hardware slots ensure compatibility with mainstream accessories, minimizing on-site assembly errors.

05

Core Advantages

 

 

Lightweight yet strong

Density is only 1/3 of steel. After heat treatment, wind load resistance meets high-rise requirements while reducing the main structure's load.

 
 

Long-lasting weather resistance

Surface treatments withstand UV, acid rain, and salt spray. Fluorocarbon coating offers over 4000h of aging resistance, with a normal service life exceeding 20 years.

 
 

Highly customizable

Hot extrusion enables complex cross-sections for shaped and curved curtain walls. Color, wall thickness, and profile can be designed on demand.

 
 

Green and recyclable

Aluminum alloy is 100% recyclable with minimal performance loss. Full life-cycle carbon emissions are far lower than steel profiles.

 

 

Construction, Storage & Handling
• Handling: Handle with care. Dragging or impact is strictly prohibited to protect the surface coating.
• Storage: Store indoors in a dry, ventilated area. Use dunnage to keep profiles ≥100mm off the ground, sorted by category. Keep thermal-break profiles out of direct sunlight and avoid heavy stacking.
• Installation: Install mullions first; vertical deviation ≤2mm per 2m. Connect transoms with bolts; avoid on-site welding. Use insulating gaskets where different metals contact to prevent electrochemical corrosion.
• Inspection: After installation, verify flatness. Conduct water spray tests and air tightness checks per specifications.

Factory & Services
• Full-process in-house production: Casting → tooling → extrusion → surface treatment → deep processing. End-to-end control over quality and delivery.
• Custom tooling: Our technical team engages early, rapidly creates molds from drawings, and provides structural optimization and load calculations.
• Warranty & support: 5-year warranty. Technical inquiries replied within 24 hours. Dedicated support for major projects.
• Export & low-carbon: Supports international standards (EN, AAMA). Low-carbon products using recycled aluminum and full export documentation are available.

 
FAQ

Q: How to choose between 6063-T5 and 6061-T6?

A: 6063-T5 offers high cost-effectiveness and excellent surface finish, suitable for standard curtain walls and low/mid-rise buildings. 6061-T6 has higher strength, ideal for high-rises and coastal high-wind areas. Selection should be based on wind load calculations.

Q: Is thicker wall thickness always better?

A: No. Wall thickness is determined by structural load calculations. Excessively thick walls waste cost and add dead load. The key is a rational cross-section design, with main load-bearing profiles meeting the minimum code requirement of 1.4mm.

Q: How to choose between fluorocarbon and powder coating?

A: Powder coating is cost-effective with more color options, suitable for inland standard buildings. Fluorocarbon coating (PVDF) offers superior weather resistance and longevity, ideal for coastal high-salt areas and high-rise landmarks.

Q: Can you customize special cross-sections based on drawings?

A: Yes. Provide CAD drawings, and we will handle mold design and sampling. Our technical team also provides structural optimization advice to control costs while meeting performance requirements.
