Why are 6061 aluminium metal strips used for lamp base

6061 aluminium metal strips are a regular material for lamp bases and heads. Nowadays, solar led street lights have become the main force in the construction of new rural areas. Solar led street lights are composed of lamp holders, lamp posts, controllers, battery boards, batteries and other components. Among them, street lamp heads are the key part of street lighting, and the lamp housings must not only function to protect the light source, it must also be effectively waterproof, dust-proof and corrosion resistant.

While being used for lamp heads, 6061 aluminium strips are mostly made of die-cast aluminum, which can effectively dissipate heat, waterproof and dust. The surface of the strip for the solar led street lamp is treated with ultraviolet and anti-corrosion treatment, so that the solar street lamp reaches a certain standard as a whole, and the single elliptical reflecting cavity is matched with the spherical arc surface to design, and the light emitted by the LED is controlled to be within the required range. Improve the uniformity of solar street lamps and the utilization rate of light energy, and highlight the energy-saving features of solar street lamps. In addition, the casing of die-cast 6061 aluminium strips has no bad glare and no stroboscopic light, which eliminates glare, visual fatigue and line-of-sight interference caused by poor glare of ordinary street lamps, and improves driving safety.

6061 aluminium metal strips are an excellent material for the solar led street lamp base, for it’s actually a car aluminum material, but compared with die-cast aluminum, die-cast aluminum is generally made of zinc-aluminum alloy, which has low production cost and fast production speed. Die casting 6061 aluminium strip is exquisite, thick, easy to control with a significantly good heat dissipation effect.
