Aluminum strips are known for their strength-to-weight ratio, offering a high level of strength relative to their weight. They can withstand significant tensile loads and are highly resistant to corrosion. The exact strength of an aluminum strip depends on its alloy composition, thickness, and temper. For instance, 6061-T6 aluminum, a common alloy, has a yield strength of approximately 276 MPa (40,000 psi) and a tensile strength of around 310 MPa (45,000 psi). Aluminum strips are also ductile, allowing them to be bent and shaped without breaking. Their strength makes them suitable for applications in construction, transportation, and aerospace industries.
