Aluminum is one of the most versatile materials available today. Due to its unique combination of characteristics, there is an Aluminum alloy for almost any application and it is the most widely used non-ferrous metal. Aluminum is highly resistance to corrosion due to the natural oxide film that forms when exposed to air. Some Aluminum alloys are stronger than structural steel yet much lighter. Furthermore, aluminum has electrical conductivity high enough for use as electrical conductors.
Aluminum comes in Non-Heat Treatable and Heat Treatable Alloys.
