Aluminum vs. Stainless Steel Nameplate

Nameplates are really important for all kinds of industries. They are needed for many uses, including brand promotion, identification, warning, and much more. Nameplates can be exposed to tough environments and get damage through denting, scratching, or covered with paint or dirt.

  1. Aluminum vs. Stainless Steel Nameplate

  2. INTRODUCTION • Nameplates are really important for all kinds of industries. They are needed for many uses, including brand promotion, identification, warning, and much more. Nameplates can be exposed to tough environments and get damage through denting, scratching, or covered with paint or dirt.

  3. Aluminum and stainless steel, both the materials stand out for their versatility and durability. • These two materials make the nameplate long-lasting. • In this post, let’s discuss the characteristics and common use of aluminum and stainless steel material nameplates.

  4. Aluminum vs. Stainless Steel Nameplate • Aluminumand stainless steel metals are the best in harsh environments can hold up to a different variety of materials. • They are easy to fix with simple holes or specific adhesives. • The font text is readable, high visibility, more design options, and different size options that facilitate you to display or convey information.

  5. When you compare both the metals, you can able to remember the most common three characteristics. The common features of stainless steel and aluminum are their durability, weight, and customization.

  6. Durability: • The durability of a nameplate is really important for those who work in a harsh and rough environment. • Abrasive chemicals, highly acidic, moisture, or caustic can cause stain and corrosion. • Nameplates are typically critical to identify if you work with dangerous substances or materials.

  7. Aluminum is known for its high durability, and it has the capacity to stand up well in harsh weather, rough chemicals, and wear and tear. As mentioned before, aluminum resistant to corrosion and lasts for many years. The layer of aluminum oxide that forms on its surface helps to protect it from damaging substances. When compared to stainless steel, the aluminum nameplateis more durable. Even though it’s highly durable, stainless steel is stronger.

  8. Weight • The second feature that concerns the two metals is that of weight. • To add more strength to aluminum metal, it mixed with a small amount of other material like iron. • Aluminumalloys are as strong as several other metals at a fraction of the weight. It helps to have high durability to heavier metals without unnecessary weight. Aluminum is easy to shape.

  9. Customization • Every metal has different options for modifications. • It totally depends on your application you may like a bright sign that holds its colors in an outdoor, one which works with welding processes, or one that can be engraved and decorated. • For both metals, it works out differently when it comes to customization.

  10. Difference between Aluminum and Stainless Steel: • Anodization • One of the prominent differences between stainless steel and aluminum is anodization. • In aluminum, the layer absorbs color dye well and • And it allows you to add a different variety of color to your nameplate, which makes aluminum nameplates best for identification, and visibility. • makes it corrosion-resistant.

  11. Photo sealing • Aluminum also permits for metal photo sealing. In this process, the ink is pressed into an inner surface and sealed in. • It prevents the metal from scratches. Stainless steel cannot be anodized. • So, the inking process does not last long. Instead, it works well through chemically etching or serial stamping, which prevents from scratch-off or fades.
