Material Grade | Aerospace, heavy machinery | Industry Standard: 6061-T6 (310 MPa UTS) Our Base: 7005-T6 (410 MPa UTS) ▲ Our Advanced: 7075-T6 (572 MPa UTS) ▲▲ (exceeds ASTM B209 aerospace standards) | Enhanced strength for critical applications. Lightweight compared to steel. | Higher cost than lower-grade alloys. Less formable than softer tempers. |
Mechanical Strength | Structural supports, load-bearing frames | Industry Standard: T4 temper (240 MPa YS) Our Base: T3 temper (350 MPa YS) ▲ Our Advanced: T6 temper (450 MPa YS) ▲▲ (meets ISO 630-1 for high-stress parts) | Withstands heavy loads and vibrations. Resists deformation under pressure. | Requires specialized machining for assembly. Brittleness at extreme temps. |
Dimensional Tolerance | Precision machinery, automotive parts | Industry Standard: ±2% (ISO 2768-c) Our Base: ±1% (ISO 2768-m) ▲ Our Advanced: ±0.5% (ISO 2768-f) ▲▲ (ensures fit in complex assemblies) | Reduces assembly errors. Compatible with automated manufacturing. | Higher production costs. Less flexibility for custom modifications. |
Corrosion Resistance | Marine environments, outdoor structures | Industry Standard: Uncoated (natural oxidation) Our Base: Anodized coating (15 μm) ▲ Our Advanced: Hard-anodized + PVDF (25 μm) ▲▲ (resists saltwater corrosion per ASTM B137) | Protects against rust and chemical exposure. Extends lifespan in harsh conditions. | Coating adds to cost. Risk of coating damage during installation. |
Weight-to-Strength Ratio | Automotive, aerospace | Industry Standard: Steel (7.8 g/cm³) Our Base: Aluminum (2.7 g/cm³) ▲ Our Advanced: Optimized profile (2.5 g/cm³) ▲▲ (reduces payload weight by 65% vs steel) | Lightweight for fuel efficiency. Improves agility in vehicles. | Lower strength than steel for equivalent thickness. Costlier than steel. |
Cost Efficiency | Budget construction, general frameworks | Industry Standard: Steel (USD $0.5/kg) Our Base: Aluminum (USD $2.0/kg) ▲ Our Advanced: Premium alloy (USD $3.5/kg) ▲▲ (longer lifespan reduces replacement costs) | Competitive pricing for high-performance needs. Lower long-term maintenance. | Higher upfront cost. Not ideal for low-budget, non-critical applications. |
