Custom creations

Aluminum master alloys help metallurgists fine-tune alloys to create materials that are stronger, lighter, and more easily processed Aluminum is the most abundant metallic element in the Earth’s crust—it’s even more common than Iron. In its pure form, though, it’s soft and malleable. It needs to be alloyed with other elements, including Iron, Zinc, Silicon,…

Solid structures

From everyday uses to extreme applications, Aluminum alloys get the job done Many people think of Aluminum in terms of crushable cans and foil, but, in addition to being lightweight, Aluminum’s strength and toughness is valuable when manufacturing cars, trucks and military vehicles. There are more than 500 recorded alloys that contain Aluminum, and because…

Light and strong

Aluminum alloys are essential to a wide variety of applications From planes to trains, cans and cars—when engineers are looking for a way to reduce weight but retain strength, they often turn to lightweight, durable Aluminum. The white metal only has been manufactured in commercial quantities for just over a century, largely due to the…
