Most aluminum alloy profiles use primary colors without coating, and some merchants often use the method of coloring the surface of recycled aluminum profiles in order to make them shoddy. Therefore, consumers should ask merchants to display the cross-section of product profiles when purchasing. to understand the real material. The storefront generally has a display of finished sliding windows. Hold the frame of the sliding window and shake it to observe whether the deformation is severe. If there is serious deformation, it is likely to fall out of the sliding window track frame, which is very dangerous.

2. Aluminum alloy sliding windows are light in weight but high in strength. The aluminum alloy material has light specific gravity and high strength, and the section of the door and window frame is an empty thin-walled composite section, which is easy to use and reduces the weight of the aluminum alloy profile due to the empty stomach. Aluminum alloy doors and windows are about 50% lighter than steel doors and windows. In the case of larger section size and lighter weight, the section has higher strength.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of aluminum alloy sliding windows

1. Advantages

The aluminum alloy sliding window is easy to clean. The frame of the aluminum alloy sliding window is made of metal. When we clean it daily, we only need to gently wipe it with a damp cloth, but try to wring it out as much as possible to prevent moisture from remaining on the surface of the window and affecting the appearance.

In recent years, there have been improved sliding windows with new technology, which can push multiple sashes to one side and fold. At the same time, there are sliding windows that improve air tightness, but in general, they still cannot achieve the thermal performance of casement windows, and the energy consumption is relatively high.

The aluminum alloy sliding window has good safety, and is light in weight but high in strength, which is more convenient and trouble-free to transport. However, the air tightness of the aluminum alloy sliding window is relatively poor when it is closed.
