Advantages of aluminum

• low weight (2.7 g/cm3 - about one-third the density of steel)
• tensile strength (70 to 600 MPa)
• good ductility and malleability - excellent for extrusion, bending and forming
• non-flammability (does not emit toxic fumes at high temperatures)
• corrosion resistance (very high, especially in neutral or slightly acidic environments)
• reacts with oxygen in air to form a very thin oxide layer, which is tight and provides excellent protection against further corrosion
• non-magnetic material
• non-toxic material
• easy to combine with other products
• good electrical and thermal conductivity
