Can you bend aluminium box sections?

Aluminium box sections are widely used in construction, furniture design, and more due to their durability and strength. However, bending aluminium box sections requires careful planning, the right tools, and an understanding of the material's properties to ensure the process is smooth and does not compromise its integrity.

Are aluminium box sections strong?

How do you cut aluminium box sections?

For larger projects and more difficult cuts, a circular saw is a good option.

Miter cutting is a great way to achieve precise cuts for complex angles and/or shapes.

Are aluminium box sections stronger than solid sections?

You may be surprised to learn that hollow square sections are stronger than solid rods of the same weight.

The key difference is that hollow tubes have a higher strength-to-weight ratio due to their inertia.

How do you weld aluminium box sections?

Welding aluminium box sections is similar to welding any other aluminium products. The method (MIG, TIG, Arc) you use depends on the size and thickness of the box section product, as well as the surface finish and application you expect.
