Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible fasteners that can cause galvanic corrosion with aluminum.Utilize fasteners made from compatible materials such as stainless steel (300 series) or anodized aluminum to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Employing cutting or machining methods that generate excessive heat, potentially altering the temper of the aluminum.Employ appropriate cutting fluids and moderate speeds/feeds when machining or cutting to minimize heat input and maintain the alloy's temper.

Common Applications

  • Industrial liquid filtration media support
  • Air purification system components
  • Customized filter housings and frames

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged contact with strong acids or alkalis, which can degrade aluminum.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining or welding aluminum to avoid inhalation of fumes.
