Frequently asked questions
How does aluminum alloy compare to stainless steel?
When comparing similar shapes and thicknesses, stainless steel will always be stronger, but the aluminum will also weigh approximately 2/3 less. Aluminum is also typically easier to shape and cut.
What are the main properties of aluminum?
Aluminum is lightweight, nonmagnetic, and an excellent conductor that stays stable up to its melting point. Its corrosion-resistant nature and high malleability make it the ideal choice for many applications.
What is primary aluminum?
Aluminum is produced from bauxite ore after it has been refined and reduced electrolytically. Because it comes directly from ore, it contains no alloying additives or recycled aluminum. The “primary” designation refers to its quality or appearance, with primary aluminum being without flaws or defects (unlike secondary aluminum as detailed below).
What is the difference between primary and secondary aluminum?
Primary aluminum appears flawless, while secondary aluminum may have minor imperfections, such as scratches, water stains, dents, dings, roll marks, streaks, or pits.
