Alloys that are composed mostly of aluminum have been very important in aerospace manufacturing since the introduction of metal skinned aircraft.
Aluminum alloys come in multiple densities for thousands of different parts. Aerospace, Auto, Military, Medical, and many more have different needs for different parts.
Some may be lighter and some thicker. Castings Aluminum works with all these kinds of parts.
