Aluminum-steel clad plates, produced using explosive welding technology, provide a stable and durable bond between two dissimilar metals. These plates are widely used in electrical current transfer and industrial structures. The metallurgical bonding between aluminum and steel makes them ideal for applications requiring both high electrical conductivity and mechanical strength.
In aluminum production, these plates serve as transition joints between aluminum busbars and steel rods in electrolytic cells. The explosive welding creates an atomic bond between the metals, significantly reducing electrical resistance. This results in improved energy efficiency, reduced power consumption, and extended cell lifespan under harsh operating conditions.
Aluminum-steel tri-clad plates are used to connect aluminum structures to steel components in ship hulls. These corrosion-resistant joints prevent galvanic current leakage. Their use in shipbuilding not only reduces overall structural weight but also significantly enhances durability and structural integrity in challenging marine environments.
