The aluminum tripod bracket system has good durability under different climatic conditions, mainly due to its material properties, design optimization and anti-corrosion treatment. The following is a detailed analysis:

1. Material properties and climate adaptability

Corrosion resistance: Aluminum itself has excellent corrosion resistance, especially in humid, salt spray or acid-base environments. 0.4mm 3105 aluminum coil can withstand heavy rain, snow and UV radiation, and is not easy to deform or crack; and the aluminum alloy bracket is suitable for severe weather conditions after anti-corrosion treatment. Usually the metal parts of aluminum brackets can last up to 20 years, but corrosive conditions such as marine and chemical environments should be avoided.

Temperature adaptability: Aluminum can maintain structural integrity at extreme temperatures (-40°C to 50°C)

Aluminum brackets can withstand high and low temperature cycles without obvious thermal expansion problems.

2. Design and manufacturing process

Anti-corrosion treatment: Most aluminum brackets use anodizing or stainless steel bonding process to significantly improve durability. POWERACK's aluminum alloy bracket achieves a 20-year service life through anodizing and stainless steel 304 bolts; and uses aluminum 6005-T5 and EPDM materials, with a 10-year warranty and 25-year service life design.

Structural optimization: The pre-assembled design and adjustable angle enhance the adaptability of the bracket, allowing it to work stably in different terrains (such as flat roofs, sloping roofs) and climatic conditions (such as strong winds and heavy snow).

3. Specific performance under climatic conditions

Extreme climate: Aluminum brackets perform stably under extreme conditions such as high wind speed, heavy snow pressure, and high humidity.

Long-term performance: The life of aluminum brackets usually matches the warranty period of photovoltaic modules (25 years), and some products even claim a 20-year service life. Metal parts can last up to 20 years under normal storage and use, but improper use (such as overloading and corrosive environments) should be avoided.

4. Potential Challenges and Precautions

Corrosive Environment: Although aluminum is corrosion-resistant, it still requires additional protection (such as stainless steel bonding or coating) in strong acid, alkali or marine environments.

Warning: Marine or chemical environments may shorten lifespan and require regular inspection.

Maintenance Requirements: Long-term exposure to harsh climates (such as high humidity, UV radiation) may cause surface aging and require regular cleaning. It is recommended to avoid the use of bleach or strong solvents to prevent damage.

5. Comparison with other materials

FRP/CFRP materials:

It is mentioned that the performance of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) decreases in environments such as humidity and heat, freeze-thaw cycles, etc., but aluminum brackets do not involve such problems because the material itself is more stable.

Steel: Steel scaffolding is prone to rust in high temperature and high humidity environments, while aluminum brackets avoid this problem through lightweight design and anti-corrosion treatment.

Conclusion

The aluminum tripod bracket system shows good durability in various climatic conditions (such as high wind speed, heavy snow, high humidity, and extreme temperature), especially after anti-corrosion treatment such as anodizing and stainless steel bonding, the service life can reach 20-25 years. Its advantages lie in the corrosion resistance of the material itself, lightweight design and strong adaptability, but it is necessary to avoid highly corrosive environments and perform regular maintenance. For extreme climates (such as extreme cold or high salt spray), it is recommended to choose high-quality products that meet international standards (such as AS/NZS 1170).
