FAQ

The thickness tolerances for aluminum sheets can vary depending on the specific grade and manufacturing process, but generally they range from ±0.005 inches to ±0.015 inches.

Aluminum sheets are indeed suitable for food preparation surfaces. They are a lightweight and durable option extensively utilized in the food industry. Being non-toxic and non-reactive, aluminum does not pose any risk of releasing harmful chemicals upon contact with food. Moreover, aluminum sheets are highly convenient to clean and maintain, making them a preferred choice for both commercial and home kitchens. Furthermore, aluminum boasts excellent heat conductivity, ensuring even cooking and baking. Nevertheless, it is worth mentioning that aluminum may react with acidic or salty foods, resulting in a metallic taste. To prevent this, it is advisable to place a layer of parchment paper or a silicone baking mat as a barrier between the aluminum sheet and the food.

Can anyone tell me what to be careful of if you have aluminum wiring in your house. I was told that if the wall gets hot, I need to tighten the screws of the inside switch. Is this true and if I didn't, would it actually cause a fire in the wall. If this is true, how often does it loosen?

Aluminum wiring contracts and expands more than copper wiring of similar size. This means that it has a tendancy to loosen the screws on the outlets over time. As the screws loosen, the resistance in the circuit goes up - this resistance manifests itself as heat. If it gets too hot, it can start fires. My parents owned a house with aluminum wiring, that they sold to me. In the 35 years total we've owned it, I think we've tightened the screws on the outlets three times total. Only once in all that time have we had a wall get hot. The most recent tightening was during a major repainting where we actually replaced the outlets and switches with decorator ones as we painted each room.

Normally, when I install a 30-amp dryer receptacle, the wire is #10 copper and I double over the end with lineman's pliers prior to landing it in the lug just to be extra tight. Today I replaced a dryer outlet wired with #8 aluminum SE. The quandaray I have is that the lugs seem made for #6 and the #8 just sort of flattens and divides under the screw. Is this safe? The doubling over move makes the wire way too thick for the lugs to close. I've been doing electric for many years and have never run into this. Should I go back and re-run the circuit (only about 30 feet) in #10 copper? What is the actual draw of a typical electric dryer on high heat, anyway? Thanks.

Copper safer than Alum at high amperages

To rephrase- in our physics class we found that a simple bar magnet wouldn't attract to an aluminum gutter nail, but our teacher told us to find out whether or not any magnet could lift up the aluminum material. If you answer please give a reference or source, or at least an idea on how to go about researching this, all help appreciated, thanks and God Bless!

Magnet And Aluminum

I am doing a project on Aluminum it has 13 protons just to make sure everyones on the same page. How much of it is left or exsits? Also how does it behave?

Aluminium is one of the most abundant Element on earth, ranking 3rd in the crust, second only to oxygen and silicon. And it is eminently recyclable. However, many minerals containing aluminium are not economically exploitable.

which has more volume? a kg of gold or a kg of aluminum? please explain in physics terms

Gold is a heavy metal and aluminum is very light. So aluminum would take up lots more space than an equal weight of gold, even if the aluminum was forged into a smaller size.

Aluminum sheets are indeed suitable for automotive applications. Aluminum, being a lightweight material, presents several advantages for automotive use. To begin with, aluminum boasts exceptional resistance against corrosion, making it an excellent choice for exterior parts that are exposed to harsh environments. Moreover, aluminum offers a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring high durability while keeping the overall weight of the vehicle at a minimum. Consequently, this results in enhanced fuel efficiency and superior performance. Furthermore, aluminum sheets are highly malleable, enabling manufacturers to fashion intricate shapes and designs for a variety of automotive components. Additionally, aluminum is recyclable, making it a sustainable option for the environment. All in all, the utilization of aluminum sheets in automotive applications provides numerous benefits, including weight reduction, improved fuel efficiency, resistance to corrosion, and flexibility in design.
