Aluminum Broaching

Uses and Advantages of Aluminum

One reason aluminum is often chosen is because of its versatility. It is both lightweight and flexible, meaning it can be machined and processed into many types of shapes and used for a number of applications. Being lightweight, broaching aluminum parts is also cheaper and easier to transport. Aluminum is also corrosion-resistant, naturally generates a protective coating, and can have treatments done for further improvement of its corrosion resistance.

Used for applications such as power lines and LED lights, aluminum is an excellent conductor of both electricity and heat. Aluminum is both lightweight and conductive, allowing for certain applications that materials like copper aren’t as suitable for.

Overall, the best advantages of aluminum include but are not limited to:
