DLS Aluminum can provide various grades of aluminum plates and coils for the automotive industry. Our aluminum materials can be applied in the production of fuel tanks, vehicle bodies and radiators. Using aluminum alloy to produce vehicles provides the following characteristics.

①Lightweight and high strength
Aluminum is a relatively lightweight metal, which is one of the most important factors in ship design because a lighter ship body means greater energy savings. Lightweight doesn’t necessarily mean low strength and some aluminum alloys are even stronger than steel.

②Corrosion resistance
When exposed to marine environments, overcoming the corrosion caused by salty water poses a great challenge for many materials. The natural oxidation process of aluminum provides excellent corrosion protection. Moreover, you can also enhance the resistance of the material by adding other protective coatings.

③Machinability
The machinability of aluminum alloys is an important reason why they are widely used in the shipbuilding industry. They can be processed into different shapes, and due to its easy processing, the cost is much lower than that of steel.
