Carbon steel is a type of metal that consist of a combination of iron and carbon. The percentage of carbon added to the mix depends on the purpose for which it is being manufactured. There are multiples uses for carbon steel. Almost everything from wires to fences uses carbon steel as a basic ingredient in production. Carbon steel has also been a key element in the aviation industry.Carbon steel is known for its hardness which makes it ideal for the construction of airplane parts. While it may be much heavier than aluminum, it is strong and less likely to deform or bend under force and heat. Airplanes must be built to withstand all of the elements of nature and carbon steel is on the forefront as a line of defense against the deterioration of aircraft parts. It is used specifically for certain components of an aircraft like the landing gear where hardness, durability, and strength are very important.The average commercial airliners weigh around 75 tons, while the bigger jets weight about 450 tons. It is important that the landing gear can withstand the immense pressure of takeoff and landing. Carbon steel is the go-to metal for landing gear because of its ability to withstand high pressure without wrapping or becoming deformed.Carbon steel has also been used as the skin of some high-speed airplanes. Supersonic jets use carbon steel because of its resistance to heat. As aircrafts approach supersonic speeds at over 900 miles per hour, the friction in the air causes the exterior of the aircraft to heat up. This is a similar effect to what happens when an aircraft from outer space makes reentry into the earths atmosphere. Aircraft engineers used carbon steel as the skin on supersonic jets as an added protective layer. Its heat resistanttemperature controlling feature make it ideal for supersonic flights. Military jets as well as spacecrafts are build with carbon steel for this reason.As the aviation industry continues to build bigger and better aircrafts, carbon steel will continue to be a major component.

Copper is a versatile metal used in multiple industries. Because it is recyclable, it is an invaluable part of sustainable energy technology such as solar panels and wind turbines. Usually paired with other metals to create alloys, its applications are almost endless. Uses of Copper Copper has many valuable factors that make it an irreplaceable metal. Coppers conductivity, malleability, elasticity, and strength are its most important qualities. Conductivity Because electrons in a copper atom can flow freely, they can carry an electric current much easier. Malleability Copper can be molded and stretched into intricate structures and surfaces without breaking. Elasticity After being formed and stretched, copper can revert back into its original form easily. Strength Copper is strong enough to be molded and stretched and turned into copper wire, but its also strong enough to withstand the process without fracturing. Copper is very heavy, making it unsuitable for structures of aircrafts. Lighter metals such as aluminum are frequently used instead. Copper can be found in the electrical systems of smart phones, generators, and complex parts used for data transfer. In addition to being highly conductible, copper is also non-magnetic which makes it not interfere with any of the electrical equipment. Copper is one of the most abundant elements found on Earth. With reliability and a wide variety of uses, its presence in the aviation, construction, and even digital technology industries is prominent. Copper will also be useful in the future because it can be recycled. Around half of all copper thats recycled can be considered scrap. Whether it was used for old pipes, parts of an old vehicle, or discarded electrical cables, it can be made into new grade A copper. With recyclability at the forefront of sustainable energy, copper will continue to be utilized in new ways. At Avion Alloys, we take pride in quality assurance and handle our materials properly. Although copper can be recycled easily, its still important to maintain it correctly or it could lose some of its properties. We strive to supply customers with top-grade materials.

The metal alloy brass is made from zinc and copper. Brass is one of the more popular alloys for a multitude of reasons, one of the most obvious being its aesthetic allure. Brass has a gold-like look which is why it is most used in a decorative manner including clocks, watches, statues, tiling, and much more. This noticeable shine has made brass a popular alloy amongst contractors. Its acoustic and low friction value makes it the perfect candidate for making instruments such as trumpets and horns, but one of the most important uses of brass has very little to do with what meets the eye. Brass is also germicidal, meaning that any microorganism that comes in contact with this alloy is killed immediately.Along with copper and zinc, brass contains tiny amounts of lead, aluminum, nickel, tin, phosphorous, magnesium, iron, and manganese. It becomes highly ductile when zinc content levels rise to 35 percent and increasingly stronger the more zinc levels increase. While high levels of zinc improve strength, high levels of copper allows brass to become increasingly electrically conductive. Sheets from brass suppliers generally tend to have noticeably higher levels of copper than zinc. This is what makes brass such a versatile alloy.Generic Brass UsesBrass has long been used in a variety of manners as a result of its low melting point, ability to cast easily, and corrosion-resistant properties when aluminum is present. Brass continues to be used in:Electrical connectorsAmmunitionArchitectureHingesPlumbingBrass is easily malleable making it easy for suppliers to bend and cast it in whatever way that best fits the customers needs.Brass for AviationBrass has specific qualities which have been long recognized by the aviation industry. The term muntz metal is used whenever copper is at 60 percent and zinc is at 40 percent. This combination makes brass increasingly corrosion-resistant and can be made even stronger through heat treatment. Saltwater, which has the ability to corrode the toughest alloys, has a very minute effect on brass when copper levels are high. Brass is most used as bolts and nuts in the aviation industry and can be also used as casing for electrical components.Avion Alloys is a NASA approved vendor that is globally recognized as a lead distributor for brass alongside many other alloys. With various locations across the U.S., we offer both domestic and international shipping of all of our alloys that can be casted specifically for your intended use.

Bronze is a copper alloy with multiple variations in its composition for different uses. Bronze is often used in the product of architectural pieces, furniture hardware, trims and railing, and door and window frames. When necessary, It can also be protected with a mild coating which can make it resistant to weak acids. Bronze is usually combined with other metals and is used when a metal stronger than copper is necessary.Bronze For AviationFactors such as strength, conductivity, malleability, and elasticity are all considered before a metal is chosen for a project in the aviation industry. Pure copper is valued more than bronze because of how it ranks in such factors, along with being recyclable. Bronze can be used in the pistons and rotors in the engine of an aircraft. It has very low friction properties making it ideal for the fast moving components of an engine such as bearings and pump parts. It is often used in fuel and oil line fittings to allow fuel and oil to move freely without rusting.By itself, bronze isnt used much in an aircraft because of its problems like having poor resistance, but variations of bronze can provide a multitude of uses. Aluminum bronze is used for diaphragms, gears, and pumps. Aluminum bronze is also useful in areas that are frequently exposed to saltwater or corrosive gasses because it isnt easily corroded. Manganese bronze is used in landing gear and brackets. Bronze can be combined with other metals to create alloys for a variety of situations.Aluminum bronze Used in pumps and gearsManganese bronze Can be molded into a rod form and used in landing gearHigh leaded tin bronze Used in engine castingsBronze is used in many different aspects of an aircraft. By combining bronze with different metals the properties of the new alloys create more opportunities for bronze to be utilized effectively. Our goal at Avion Alloys is to supply our customers with high-grade materials that are above industry standards. To receive a free quote for our bronze or bronze-based alloys

Copper is one of the most versatile pure metals. Evidence of copper dates back to 8700 BC but commercial production wasnt underway until the 20th century. Being a pure metal, copper is usually paired with another metal to create alloys but it is also used by itself in aviation. Because it is easily molded and stretched, copper is often used in the construction of buildings and industrial machinery. Copper is also invaluable in aviation because of its high conductivity and corrosion resistance making it a highly sought after material.Why Copper?The aviation industry has a certain criteria that a metal needs to meet before it is used.This includes factors such as strength, conductivity, malleability, and elasticity.Strength Copper has enough strength to be molded but it also tough enough to not break.Conductivity The electrons in a copper atom can flow very freely allowing them to carry the electric current.Malleability Copper can be formed and stretched into into complex structures and surfaces without breaking.Elasticity After being formed and stretched, copper can go back into its original form without much issue.Another factor that needs to be considered is weight. Copper is heavy and because an aircraft needs to be as light as possible, copper is not used in the structure of an aircraft like aluminum. Instead, it is mainly used in electrical components. In the form of copper wire, it is optimal for the complex electrical systems of an aircraft like generators and parts used for data transfer. Copper is also non-magnetic which adds to its practical electrical use because it wont damage or interfere with any of the equipment. Copper alone is an important resource that has a permanent stay in the aviation industry.Copper is a common choice in aviation because it is easily malleable, highly conductible, and resistant to corrosion. Its reliability and multitude of uses makes it one of the most important metals in the aviation industry. At Avion Alloys, we understand the importance of copper and we strive to supply our customers with top-grade materials that are consistently above industry standards.

Metals can molded into shapes and wires; they can also be punctured to allow them to adhere to the structures they are being used to create. This puncturing process is called perforation. Perforation allows the metals to be used after being molded and correspond to custom designs. Through perforation, staggered holes are made in the sheets of metal; these holes can be shaped and measured according to the specifications of whatever is being built. The holes allow the metal to be screwed, drilled, and nailed.Without perforation, many structures and vehicles wouldnt be possible, making perforated sheets the forefront of the architectural industry.Perforated Sheets for AviationStainless steel, aluminum, titanium, copper, and brass are regularly available for perforation. In aviation, perforated sheets are used in constructing parts such as:RunwaysDoorsCeilingsAC ventsInterior liningSmall holes can be used when building the more intricate parts of an aircraft while larger holes can be used in the general construction of the plane. These sheets arent limited to the production of the outside structure of an aircraft. They can also be used as an interior element. A few ways perforated sheets are used in the interior of an aircraft are:Screens Different sized holes can be custom made to fit each screen to make it secureFilters The holes can be made to regulate airflow or climateShields Holes can be large or small depending on what needs to be shielded.They can be used to monitor and control liquid, lights, heat, and sound waves. Perforated sheets can be applied to a plethora of blueprints and frameworks in aviation.Perforated sheets are valued for their vast number of applications. Whether used structurally or internally, they have proven to be an invaluable asset in aviation. As new technology and structural advantages are being found, they continue to be utilized in new ways. At Avion Alloys, we recognize the importance of having a reliable and secure source of materials. For a free quote on perforated sheets or any other materials that we have available

Known for its high strength and low density, titanium is one of the most expensive metals that is commercially used today.Examples of titanium usage include NASAs International Space Station and the Boeing 737 Dreamliner which is made up of 15 percent titanium materials.Titanium has the highest weight-to-strength ratio of any metal making it useful for a multitude of industries that require parts with immense strength. Titanium is as strong as steel but is also 45-50 percent lighter.Titanium for AviationIn aviation, titanium is very heat resistant so it is used in the construction of fighter jets and their engines. In commercial aircrafts, titanium isnt used as much as other metals like aluminum because of how expensive it is to manufacture. In parts that reach high temperatures, titanium is combined with other metals to create alloys that are easily molded and can still handle intense conditions. Titaniums strength, low conductivity, and non-magnetic properties makes it a viable metal for many aircrafts. Uses of titanium include:Fuselage skinsEngine shroudsFirewallsAir DuctsEngines in turbine aircraftRotorsHydraulic systemsBecause titanium has to reach a temperature of 3000 degrees fahrenheit, its hard to manufacture and is more expensive than most other metals but it can be applied in many aspects of an aircraft and is considered an invaluable metal for aviation.Titanium is used in aviation and other fields because of its unique combination of heat tolerance, strength, and corrosion resistance. Having the highest weight-to-strength ratio of any metal makes it a consistent staple in the aviation industry.

Chromium is one of the most abundant elements found in the Earths crust. It is used in combination with other metals like nickel and cobalt to create different alloys for many purposes. Whether high corrosive resistance is needed or the alloy needs to withstand high temperatures, chromium is the central focal point of each alloy.Chromium is a hard steel-gray colored metal. Because it is usually polished, it has a very bright shine. The main application of chromium is plating, or chrome plating. Chrome plating uses electrical currents to form a metal coating. Many vehicles use chrome plating to endure weather and temperature changes.Uses of ChromiumThe largest use of chromium comes in the form of stainless steel. Taking advantage of chromiums innate hardness corrosive properties, stainless steel encompasses steel and a minimum of 10.5% chromium. Stainless stems from its ability to be easily polished and shined. Uses of stainless steel can range from cutlery to steam and gas turbines.Currently, chromium isnt used in aviation very much because of health concerns. It was mainly used as paint for aircrafts, but exposure could bring about side effects such as respiratory irritation, and asthma. Around 80% of commercially produced chromium is used to make alloys and the rest is used the chemical industry. Refractories and foundries also make use of chromiums properties. Chromium is abundant, but when it is mishandled, the properties that make it a highly sought out material can be diminished.At Avion Alloys, we understand how to maintain and care for materials like chromium to help ensure that they retain all of their important factors. With quality assurance as our number one goal, you can be sure that our products are kept up to par.

Titanium, named after Titans in Greek mythology, is a chemical element and transition metal known for its low density and high strength. It boasts a silver shine and resists corrosion from water and chlorine. Titanium steel sheets are equally as strong, but less dense than, steel. For this reason, it is important to combine this metal with an alloying agent that includes other materials like aluminum or iron. Many alloy variations exist for titanium, including molbdenum, vanadium, and more. These combinations produce a durable and lightweight alloy for many industries, including medical equipment, aerospace crafts, and chemical manufacturing. As leading titanium vendors for sheets, and plates we are experts at sourcing whatever kind of product you need.

Brass is one of the more flexible materials to work with thanks to its relatively low melting points compared to other materials. It is often associated with musical instruments (commonly called brass instruments) such as trumpets and horns, but it is also an important material used to make electric parts. Thats because along with being highly malleable, brass is also a very conductive material, and it doesnt wear out as fast as other metals. Brass plates also work as effective heat conductors.Due to its hardy, flexible, yet pleasing look, contractors and construction workers often use brass to build pipes, tubes, radiators, and firearm casings. Some contractors prefer to order plates from brass vendors for the aesthetic appeal. The metal has a distinct shine to it that no other substance can match, but what many dont know is that same color can be changed when changing the main elements that make up the sheets: copper and zinc.More often than not, copper makes up more brass than zinc does. The distribution from a brass supplier ranges between 55% to 95% copper within any brass sheet. Higher percentage leads to brass that is more electrically conductive. On the other hand, zinc is what makes up the hardness and strength of the material. However, its for this same reason that the material is typically more difficult to make. Other small elements like lead and arsenic are sometimes added to brass sheets for extra qualities, like improving machine performance or corrosion inhibition.

Refractory metals are a class of metals that are extraordinarily resistant to heat and wear. The expression is mostly used in the context of materials science, metallurgy, and engineering. The definition of which elements belong to this group differs. The most common definition includes five elements: two of the fifth period (niobium and molybdenum) and three of the sixth period (tantalum, tungsten, and rhenium). They all share some properties including a melting point above 2000deg C and high hardness at room temperature. Partly due to the high melting point, refractory metals are stable against creep formation to very high temperatures.Avion Alloys is a refractory metals distributor with the following grades in stock at all times.
