Description
1. Overview of the 262x60mm Aluminum Heatsinks(PDF Drawing Download)
The 262x60mm aluminum heatsinks are engineered for universal compatibility and unmatched thermal performance in high-heat environments like welding systems, foundries, and heavy machinery. Built with 6063-T5 aluminum alloy, these heatsinks achieve 40% faster heat dissipation than conventional designs, ensuring stable operation even under sustained 500W loads. Their adaptable dimensions cater to diverse industrial setups, while the extruded unibody construction eliminates weak points, making them ideal for vibration-prone applications.
2. Material Excellence: 6063-T5 Aluminum Alloy
-
Superior Thermal Conductivity: 180 W/m·K ensures rapid heat transfer from critical components.
-
Robust Durability: Hard anodized coating (30μm) resists abrasion, chemicals, and humidity.
-
Flexibility: Easily machined for custom brackets or mounting configurations.
