InquiryAlclad is a duplex metal product made by cladding an aluminum alloy core with surface layers of pure aluminum or aluminum alloy, resulting in increased resistance to corrosionIt is a sandwich of high strength aluminum alloy between two sheets of commercially pure metal for a combination of strength and corrosion resistance produced by rolling.
InquiryAn extremely thin sheet of pure aluminum laminated onto each side of an aluminum alloy sheet improves the corrosion resistance with little impairment of strengthThe trade name of this aluminum laminate, as originated by the Aluminum Company of America, is AlcadFrom this trade name the adjective clad and the verb cladding have been derived.
InquiryMetal cladding is a type of protective coating, where the protective material such as metal powder or foil is bonded to a substrate by applying heat and or pressureThe study of metal cladding is significant because this method of corrosion protection and wear protection is generally very reliable and cost effective.
