Flooring Sheets / Tread Plates

Aluminium is used extensively in the transport industry due to its high strength to weight ratio and its excellent impact absorption qualities. Western countries use an average of 140kg of aluminium per vehicle, whereas it stands at 40kg per vehicle in India.

Hindalco's high-quality aluminium is preferred for its superior alloy composition and metallurgical properties that meet stringent performance parameters. Our expertise is backed by the superior Wagstaff AirSlip casting technology. From brakes to ignition, transmission to suspension, cooling and exhaust systems to windows and structurals, ornamentals to accessories, automobile heat exchangers and registration plates, Hindalcoâ??s superior aluminium material is for making the most precise automobile components.

As one of India's largest producers of flat rolled products, Hindalco's aluminum sheet is produced from its own cast slabs or continuous cast coils, rolled down to customized thickness, gauge and tolerances. Our hot rolled plates are durable and deliver long lasting performance.

Everlast, a Hindalco brand, launched in December 2002, is made of aluminium and is ideal for all roofing and cladding needs. It is easy to use, durable and economical to work with. Using aluminium for roofing has many benefits. Some of them are the following:

Aluminium roofing sheets are extremely light and have a high strength-to-weight ratio.
Aluminium is an increasingly popular choice for use in installations and buildings. It is corrosion-resistant in almost any kind of environment. Even in highly corrosive industrial environments, it is resistant to fumes and vapours of organic compounds and to chemicals like ammonia, carbon dioxide and acids such as hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulphuric acid. Such corrosion resistance gives the metal a long life and keeps it looking good throughout its life.
The shine and brightness of aluminium livens its surroundings, and, because it doesn't stain, discolour or rot, it keeps its brightness and shine for a long time. Aluminium corrugated sheets can take a variety of finishes, colours and textures, which protect them and further enhance their appearance.
An aluminium structure can be easily dismantled, transported and re-assembled in a new location.
Though the metal is a good conductor of heat, its high reflectivity for radiant heat and light (75 to 80 per cent when new, 60 per cent after several years) keeps the interiors of aluminium building from five to eight degrees celsius cooler in summer, while its low emission rate cuts heat loss in winter.

It is easy to maintain and wash

Hindalco's closure stock is rolled to very fine tolerances to yield more closure per tonne of stock and to allow uninterrupted operation of high-speed, multiple-cavity presses. Its strength, high formability, low earring and printable surfaces make it ideal for pilfer-proof caps and vial seals.

Packing

Sheet: Sheets are placed in wooden boxes on wooden skids with runners along the length of the sheet. They are wrapped in HDPE with a hardboard on top and bottom of the stack. Hoop iron strapping runs along the length of the sheets. Silica gel packets are put in the boxes for moisture protection.

Alternatively, they are wrapped in a poly-laminated gunny or polythene, strapped with a hoop iron strap and clip and placed on a wooden pallet. Edge guards are used and the sheets are wrapped with protective thermocol sheets.

Coil: Coil is placed on wooden pallets in either eye-to-sky or eye-to-wall condition, wrapped in HDPE fabric and hardboard, and strapped with hoop iron. Silica gel packets are used for moisture protection.

Applications :
Pilfer-proof caps
Vial seals
Cream containers and caps
