Aluminium is one of Smiths largest stock ranges. We offer two types; wrought and cast. Wrought alloys are strengthened either by workâhardening or heat treatment, while cast alloys are different as a more suitable composition is required. Click on an image below to view a product range.
In its pure form, aluminium is easily worked and possesses a high level of corrosion resistance, but its low strength reduces the number of applications for which it is suitable.
When alloyed, however, aluminium becomes an extremely versatile and widely used material. The alloying elements used are dependant on the finished article required.
Our range of commercial aluminium grades, combined with a huge range of shapes and sizes is one of Smiths main product groups and includes 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000, 6000 and 7000 series alloys.
Our range of aluminium tooling plates has been developed to offer improved performance over basic 5000, 6000 & 7000 series grades. We also process these plates in-house.
Our range of aerospace aluminium alloys includes round bar, plate, sheet and tubular products, all provided to aerospace specifications.
