Grade Descriptions
Steel A-36 (Standard Grade)
- Low carbon, hot rolled "mild steel" is suitable for general
usage in production & maintenance work,due to its excellent welding & forming characteristics.
Aluminum Standard 6061 T-6
- The most versatile of the extruded, heat treatable aluminum alloys.
- It has most of the good qualities of aluminum, and it offers a wide range
of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.
- It can be fabricated by many of the commonly used techniques.
Aluminum 5052
- This is the highest strength alloy of the more common
non-heat treatable grades.
- Fatigue strength is higher than most aluminum alloys.
- Has particularly good resistance to marine atmosphere
and salt water corrosion.
- Has excellent workability and can be drawn or
formed into intricate shapes.
Aluminum 6063
- Referred to as architectural alloy.
- Developed as an extrusion alloy with high tensile properties.
- Excellent finishing characteristics & has a high degree of resistance to corrosion.
- Most commonly found in various interior & exterior architectual applications,
such as windows, doors, store fronts & assorted trim items.
- Best suited for anodizing applications.
Aluminum 3003
-
Most widely used of all aluminum alloys.
-
Commercially pure with the addition of manganese, which increases strength 20%.
-
Excellent corrosion resistance & workability
-
May be deep drawn or spun, welded or brazed.
-
This alloy is non-heat treatable.
Stainless Steel Standard T-304
- Type 304 is a low carbon, chromium-nickle alloy.
- Highly corrosion resistant & non-magnetic.
- It requires heavier equipment to machine, but is easier to weld than type 303.
- Minimal carbide precipitation during welding.
Steel Cold Roll Standard 1018
- Low carbon steel has good case hardening properties.
- Excellent steel for bending and cold forming & is often used where cold forming
stresses are not too severe.
- Good brazing & welding qualities.
- It has a smooth, clean, cold drawn (rolled) surface.
Steel Galvanized
- Coated with Zinc by the hot-dipped process.
- Rust resistant and weathers well.
