Furthermore, they are also best suited to the <strong>main characteristics of aluminium<\/strong>, such as:<\/p>\n<ul><li><strong>Lightness<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Corrosion resistance<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Ductility and malleability<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>High electrical, thermal and sound conductivity<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Reflectivity <\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Amagnetism <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tommasin.com\/en\/pcd-tools\/\">PCD tools<\/a> are the most suitable choice for this type of material.<\/p>\n<p>PCD is also perfect for processing any type of aluminium alloy &ndash; not just the classic one &ndash; thus enabling a better optimisation between the qualitative, technological, economic and competitiveness aspects of the finished product.<\/p>\n<h2>The areas of application of aluminium<\/h2>\n<p>Due to its characteristics, aluminium adapts to a wide range of end uses. In fact, the following can be produced from <strong>semi-finished products for industrial use<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul><li><strong>Multilayer pipes<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sheets<\/strong> for
