Aluminum Lithium Alloys are used in marine, aerospace and electronic components. Lithium is the lightest metal element in the world. The addition of lithium to aluminum reduces the specific gravity of the alloy and increases the stiffness while still maintaining high strength, good corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance, and suitable ductility.
Advanced Refractory Metals is a leading supplier of Aluminum Lithium Alloy VL30. We offer competitive pricing and great lead times on all our materials, and we’re capable of supplying custom materials per any specs/drawings you provide us with.
