Medical Aluminum Parts

Aluminum is an amazing material that has impacted nearly every major industry over the past century. That includes the medical industry and the many devices that are transforming healthcare as we know it. Thanks to aluminum, people all over the world are living longer, healthier lives. Today we’ll be looking at what aluminum alloys can commonly be found in the medical industry and why they offer so many advantages.

Medical care is an industry that has very little margin for error. Lives are literally at stake. For any material to be deemed fit for medical devices, it must meet very high standards of performance and reliability. A factor not always considered in other industries is that medical devices, tools and equipment must have very high sanitation levels. This is an area where aluminum particularly excels.

If you work in the medical industry or are manufacturing products intended for medical use, you need to be sure that any aluminum you source is of the highest quality. That’s why it always pays to work with a trusted supplier with a proven track record of success.

OUR ADVANTAGES

Many of the same benefits that make aluminum so desirable in modern industries such as architecture, aerospace and tech are also useful for the medical industry. Most obviously, aluminum is extremely lightweight and has one of the best strength-to-weight ratios of any metal. This means that equipment made from aluminum can be thin, light and flexible, yet still be extremely strong and durable. Very few other materials can match aluminum in this regard.

Another advantage of aluminum is its formability. Devices made from aluminum can easily be fabricated to whatever form is desired, making it useful for medical devices that must be fashioned to exact specifications. This is especially true for therapeutic and prosthetic equipment and devices that are custom fit to a patient. Aluminum, with its exceptional design flexibility, has helped make modern advances in medical devices possible.

Aluminum is also prized for its excellent corrosion resistance. This is critical in the medical industry where sanitation and cleanliness are necessary. Medical equipment is often exposed to bodily fluids, heavy-duty cleaners and other corrosive liquids; aluminum’s ability to withstand corrosion is a perfect match. In fact, aluminum has a natural ability to form what is known as a passivation layer that protects aluminum even if it becomes nicked or scratched.

Other benefits of aluminum that make it suitable for medical devices includes its machinability, recyclability and the fact it does not require a large investment to machine and fabricate, making it a cheaper alternative to some other high performance materials such as stainless steel.
