INDALCO covers all of your aluminum welding needs.
Shipbuilding
Aluminum is an ideal shipbuilding material: outstanding seawater corrosion resistance and strength-to-weight ratio make it ever more important worldwide, from coast-guard vessels to LNG carriers and naval ships. Indalco’s investment in process control exists precisely for this critical application, keeping every inch of weld reliable and consistent. Collaboration with the world’s leading builders and the industry’s strictest standards make Indalco an ideal partner for marine aluminum — typically with ER5183 and ER5356.
Automotive
Reducing vehicle weight is critical to fuel efficiency, and the world’s major automakers are driving that change. Manufacturers around the globe seek out Indalco’s experience in this sector; we have worked — and continue to work — alongside the largest and most respected car makers to help them design and build with aluminum. Gem-Pak™ bulk packaging was designed with automotive lines in mind, improving feed reliability and reducing downtime.
Aerospace
As one of the world’s most demanding applications, aerospace requires the highest quality, reliability and consistency. Indalco is a dependable source for the special alloys this industry uses — alloy 2319 being one example — meeting aerospace standards day after day, year after year.
Rail Transit
High-speed train and rolling-stock builders adopt aluminum to cut energy consumption and raise speed. Indalco offers a full range of proven filler metals plus the industry expertise to meet specialized requirements — from TÜV and DB approvals to dedicated consumable traceability. Our technical team supports the rail industry with capacity, automation and innovation.
Truck & Trailer
Aluminum truck-trailer building is a major industry in North America and Europe and is growing worldwide. Refrigerated vans, dry freight or tank trailers each present distinct challenges — throughput, shear strength, fatigue strength, corrosion resistance — and Indalco’s technical team supports them all. Tank trailers in sustained warm service are the home ground of ER5554.
Military & Defense
Modern defense products demand lighter high-strength materials. Specific aluminum alloys deliver lighter weight for faster deployment together with the corrosion resistance and ballistic performance durability requires. From troop carriers and naval vessels to turrets and tactical bridging, Indalco works with leading defense manufacturers.
General Fabrication
For every general fabrication need — structures, consumer products, electrical switchgear and bus bars, aluminum wind towers and more — Indalco is your single-source solution, working with fabricators large and small in every corner of the world.
Semiconductor Equipment
In vacuum chambers and process-equipment parts, weld porosity means leaks — real or virtual. Indalco wire controls hydrogen sources through strict surface cleanliness, layer-winding quality and moisture-proof packaging, helping chamber builders and refurbishers drive porosity to a minimum, with MTC material certificates and batch traceability for semiconductor supply-chain QA.
