Aluminum remains one of the most versatile metals on the market—lightweight, corrosion-resistant, formable, and easily machined. From soft, highly workable alloys to structural grades that rival steel in strength-to-weight performance, ASCO is your trusted partner for aluminum sheet and plate supply, cutting, and fabrication.

Several metal sheets rest in a pile.

Why Aluminum

Aluminum’s unique blend of properties makes it the go-to material for applications demanding performance and efficiency. It’s light, strong, and endlessly recyclable, with finishes ranging from mill to mirror-polished.

Whether you’re cutting parts, bending panels, or building large-scale assemblies, aluminum’s adaptability ensures the right result every time.

Advantages of Aluminum Sheet & Plate

Corrosion Resistance

Naturally forms a protective oxide layer—perfect for interior or exterior use

High Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Stronger than steel pound-for-pound in many applications

Excellent Formability

Especially true for softer grades like 3003 and 5005

Easy to Machine and Weld

Compatible with TIG, MIG, and laser processes

Aesthetic and Functional Finishes

From anodized and painted to brushed or patterned

Sustainable

100% recyclable with no degradation in quality

Available Alloys

ASCO carries aluminum in the most common alloys for architectural and industrial use:
