Duranel ring is used to join aluminum and stainless steel tubing. Duranel is a bimetal made up of roll-bonded aluminum and stainless steel. This method of joining the tubing requires only two welding operations.
Method provides precise alignment for metal-forming dies while permitting minimal thermal expansion without die warpage or cavity space restriction. The interfacing dowel bars and die side facings are arranged so the dies are restrained in one orthogonal angle and permitted to thermally expand in the opposite orthogonal angle.
