Author: Adam Peters The Lightweight Solution Aluminum Railings
Aluminum is being used since a long time as a lightweight
material for all construction and building works. Aluminum
alloys are being used in every industry from Aviation industry
to zip making. The strength to weight ratio is higher in case
of aluminum to steel. The long life comes from the higher
corrosion resistance of aluminum.
Differing Ways Of Use Of Aluminum Rails
Aluminum rails can be used in different ways. These ways that
increase the life of aluminum are,
1. Anodizing of aluminum: The corrosion resistance of aluminum
is further increased by a thin coating on aluminum. The
anodized surface of aluminum prevents further oxidation of the
corrosion of the aluminum.
2. Strengthen with wooden inserts: Wooden blocks inserted in
the cavity of aluminum forms give added strength to aluminum
and thus lighter sections can be used for the same work,
further reducing the weight of structure.
3. Powder coating of aluminum: New painting techniques such as
the powder coating add to the visual appeal of the railings.
The overall effect of created by riot of color combination that
are available is just amazing.
4. PVC coating: Aluminum can be coated after complete
fabrication with PVC by various methods. This further increases
the life of the aluminum products. It also gives a beauty
treatment to the aluminum.
Ease of installation with Aluminum. Many manufacturers are
coming up with solution in use of aluminum in railings. The use
of the bottom posts in which the aluminum verticals can be fixe,
speed up the erection process. The DIY enthusiasts find such
solutions very useful since it reduces the time required doing
for such work. These posts are made out of PVC, CPVC or such
manmade materials.
Aluminum alloys also find increased use in the manufacture of
railings and this gives an extended life to railings. The
alloying with other metals increases further the already high
strength to weight ratio and corrosion resistance.
