As a member of the boron group of
chemical elements, with its symbol being 'AL' with an atomic number
of 13, Aluminum is one of our most versatile materials utilized for
wire weaving. |
Being the third most abundant element (following only oxygen and
silicon) Aluminum is also the most abundant metal found deep within
the Earths crust. |
Having a very low density combined with very good corrosion resistance
resulting from passivation, Aluminum is unsurpassed in its high
strength to weight ratio. |
Combining the advantages of its light weight, ductility and
malleability Aluminum wire cloth (also referred to as wire mesh) is
utilized in many thousands of applications. |
The most
common aluminum alloy used for weaving is 5400
Series. |
