Aluminum alloy</strong></a> has many useful properties, it is the lightest of the common metals, has good conductivity and corrosion resistance, and is easier to cast, forge, roll, and extrude than most metals. These properties allow Aluminum and its alloys to find applications across a broad spectrum of uses.Aluminum alloy is easily recycled, particularly in beverage cans.<br>
Aluminum alloys are very versatile, since stiffness, strength, corrosion resistance, machinability, and other properties can be tailored by alloy selection and heat treatments.<br>
Aluminum is rarely used in its pure, unalloyed state. The most common metals alloyed with Aluminum are Silicon, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc, Nickel, Manganese and Tin. Among the less common are two Aluminum Alloys that contain about 1% Silver. There are over 100 recognized casting alloys, and more than 400 wrought Aluminum alloy designations.<br>
