Anodized Aluminum (Satin Clear)
Anodized Aluminum Sheet
Description
This is pre-cut anodized Satin Clear aluminum.
What Is Anodized Aluminum?
Anodized aluminum refers to aluminum that has undergone an electrochemical process called anodization. This process creates a protective oxide layer on the aluminum's surface, reinforcing its durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal.
Anodized Aluminum is valued for its durability, light weight , scratch and UV resistance, making it ideal for numerous interior and exterior projects.
What Is the Anodizing Process?
The anodizing process involves the electrochemical treatment of aluminum to create a protective oxide layer on its surface. This is achieved by immersing the aluminum in an electrolytic solution and passing an electric current through the material. The result is a durable, corrosion-resistant, and visually appealing finish that enhances the aluminum's performance and lifespan.
All panels are masked on one side with a PVC film. The masking is on the colored side only. The back side is not colored. Remove film before laser cutting or engraving your project. Please note, the material is guaranteed on one side. The unmasked side may have imperfections.
