Aluminum Fabrication
Aluminum is usually available in 3 grade specifications, 6000 series, 5000 series and 3000 series. The 3000 series is a commercial quality product for general purpose applications, whereas the 5000 series is used for architectural and decorative applications which could require an anodized finish. This series has great corrosion resistance, formability and weldability, which make it popular in tanks, pressure vessels and also the marine industry. The 6000 series has excellent mechanical properties and weldability which is used extensively in different structural applications. At Metaline we have the expertise and equipment for all of your aluminum fabrication requirements.

General Information on Aluminum
Aluminum is a low density non-ferrous material which finds use in a number of commercial applications. This material can be strengthened by adding special alloy elements and is used in both cast and wrought forms. It finds applications in different structural areas like fasteners, aircraft structures, curtain wall, architectural and many other applications.
Aluminum offers excellent corrosion resistance properties which is a beneficial feature and the addition of pre-painted or anodized finishes provide extreme durability in indoors as well as outdoors.

FAQs
An aluminum fabricator is a fabrication shop that offers aluminum forming, cutting, bending and welding.
Additionally, it can be a metal fabrication expert who specializes in the above fabrication processes with aluminum and its alloys.
There are a few metal fabrication methods that provide the best results for aluminum, which include:
- Water-jet cutting
- MIG & TIG
- Adhesive bonding
- Extrusions
- Drawing
- Forming
- Casting
- Forging
- Press-bending
Aluminum’s unique properties, which include its softness compared to other metals, makes it is easy to work with, shape, and fabricate. Also, aluminum is usually supplied as a semi-finished product – such as metal sheets that are ready for forming.
Due to its properties of easy formation, lightness and water resistance, aluminum is used in a variety of industries such as food preservations, kitchen utilities, construction, automotive, marine machinery and even aerospace.
