Product Description:
Sheet metal is strong and durable, and sheet metal parts are often able to withstand greater pressure and heat than those made with plastic. In addition to this, aluminum, stainless steel, or surface-treated steel are all resistant to pressure, corrosion, and wear and tear. While a method like casting will share these benefits, plastic will not hold up as well with the passage of time.
In addition to being durable, sheet metal is also malleable. With the right equipment, it can be bent into numerous shapes, while still retaining its strength and structural integrity. Sheet metal also has the ability to be compressed or stretched without breaking or cracking. When a part is cast or molded, you get a very specific shape, but you also had to pay for a very specific, and usually expensive, mold. If you decide to change your part at all, it can be very expensive to invest in a new mold, and tooling for plastic can be very expensive as well. With sheet metal, it’s as simple as bending the part in a different place to create a new and unique shape. The malleability of sheet metal allows it to be effectively and efficiently used in custom, complex, or highly specialized applications.
As far as materials go, metal is by far one of the most sustainable materials. Metal is a natural resource that is both environmentally and economically strategic. When the parts are no longer needed, they can be recycled indefinitely and turned into other parts. Plastic has a limited ability to be recycled and cannot be easily and safely disposed once it reaches its end point. Metal manufacturing is a much more responsible and sustainable option.
Tooling costs for plastics can be very expensive, making sheet metal a more economical choice. Many companies move from cast or molded parts to sheet metal because of the overall reduction in costs and material waste. Material lifespan and longevity must also be considered when evaluating the cost of material. The cheapest material is not necessarily the most cost-efficient option if it will not serve you well for a long period of time and has to be consistently replaced or maintained. The strength and durability features of sheet metal make it a more cost-effective option.
Applications:
Construction and Plumbing: Used in fittings, valves, and connectors where moderate strength and machinability are required.
| Construction and Plumbing | Used in fittings, valves, and connectors where moderate strength and machinability are required |
| Machined Parts | Widely used in the manufacturing of small machine parts and hardware. |
| Decorative Items | Often used for decorative metal items because of its golden color and ease of finishing. |
| Piping and Valves | Used in the manufacturing of pipes, valves, and plumbing fittings due to its durability and resistance to water corrosion. |
| Heat Exchangers and Radiators | H62 brass is used in heat exchangers, condensers, and radiators. |
| Electrical Components | Suitable for electrical terminals, connectors, and switch parts because of its conductivity. |
