Aluminium is one of the strongest and most durable metals that can be used for tubing. It certainly has the outstanding properties necessary to make it popular for a wide range of uses. This metal remains relatively new, having only been discovered in the early 19th century, and yet finds usage in everything from furniture to automotive parts and even used in tools. As specialists in tube reduction, expansion and manipulation services, we can supply you with quality tubes made out of aluminium, alongside various other different materials.
Aluminium is popular across many industries because it has low density and high strength. The low density means that aluminium is lightweight, so it is widely used in industries such as aerospace and automotive where high strength can be gained without putting the vehicle under additional stress from extra weight. It is also quite easy to machine, making for fast production times. It is an excellent conductor, has good thermal properties and has excellent corrosion resistance as well. Aluminium is widely used in everything from tubes to drink cans and is also widely recycled. As it is recyclable, this means that stocks of aluminium remain very high and items can simply be recycled and reused once they have reached the end of their service life.
