Customer case study: improving cold heading quality and efficiency—hot rolled 1100 aluminum rod in high-end fastener production
Our customer is a high-end fastener manufacturer specializing in cold heading production for aerospace, high-speed rail, and automotive components.
After understanding their needs, we recommended hot rolled 1100 aluminum rod. Following trials and mass production, the customer reported significant improvements in product quality and production efficiency.
- Dense material structure: the hot rolling process refines the aluminum rod's internal grain structure, preventing structural instability caused by loose material composition.
- More stable cold heading formation: improved material uniformity eliminates defects such as orange peel, cracking, and hollow parts during cold heading. The product qualification rate increased by 30%.
- Reduced downtime and lower costs: hot rolled aluminum rods have no joint delamination issues, eliminating frequent production stoppages for defect inspection. Continuous cold heading production became smoother, improving efficiency by 20% and reducing material waste.
- Enhanced corrosion resistance and higher fastener quality: the high purity and uniform grain structure of the material provide superior oxidation and corrosion resistance, meeting the stringent standards of aerospace, high-speed rail, and automotive industries.

Three-roll rolling applies an extremely favorable stress state inside the aluminum rod, with compressive stress surrounding the rolled material and acting radially toward its center.
This significantly reduces width spread, minimizing the impact of material width expansion differences. As a result, the material exhibits more uniform anisotropy, leading to smaller width spread and higher elongation.
