ALUMINUM
Aluminum
Aluminum is the most versatile metal in modern industry. Known for offering high strength despite its lightweight structure and excellent recyclability, it is a cornerstone of sustainable manufacturing.
Technical Specifications and Usage Advantages
Lightweight & Strength: While approximately three times lighter than steel, it can reach high durability levels through proper alloying.
Corrosion Resistance: It naturally forms a protective oxide layer upon contact with air, shielding the metal from rust and decay.
Thermal and Electrical Conductivity: Its excellent ability to conduct heat and electricity makes it critical for energy and cooling systems.
Wide Range of Alloys: Available in various purity grades and secondary (re-melt) ingot forms depending on the application.
Areas of Application Automotive components, structural profiles, aerospace engineering, packaging industry, and electrical transmission lines.
