Aluminum is a complex metal that is versatile in its uses. Its light weight and ability to be extruded into a variety of shapes makes it one of the most used metals across a wealth of industries. Whether it’s panels on a spacecraft, the hood of an automobile or a window fame, aluminum is used in almost every aspect of our daily lives. So how is it machined? With its unique characteristics it can’t be machined in the same way you would brass, copper or stainless steel. Let’s first start with identifying what machining is.

When designers in the architecture, engineering and construction industries see the name "Stainless Steel Structural Parts," they of course think of our common stainless steel structural profiles. We are more than just a structural profile company. Did you know? We can produce carbon steel and stainless steel profiles in many alloys and in a variety of shapes, including flat bars.

Did you know? Stainless steel does not have an official fire rating. This is because stainless steel is a highly fire-resistant material. When it comes to fire performance, stainless steel consistently outperforms other metals in building materials.

Stainless steel is often chosen as the structural support for large storage tanks due to its corrosion resistance, strength, and durability, especially in environments such as chemical, food processing, and water treatment industries where corrosion is a concern.

Stainless steel fabrication requires precise workmanship, expertise, and dedicated equipment to achieve high-quality results. It is critical to work with an experienced manufacturer who understands the unique properties and characteristics of stainless steel to provide a reliable and durable product. YBT Metal has been producing standard and custom stainless steel profiles since its inception. Our production technology and value-added manufacturing services are unmatched in the industry.
