High Compression Resistance: Aluminium exhibits excellent resistance to compression forces, with studies showing it can withstand up to 24,000 kg/cm².
Good Dimensional Stability: It does not deform under shock, heat, or pressure, ensuring the integrity of its surfaces during sterilization and use.
Poor Flexion and Traction Resistance: Aluminium’s resistance to bending (flexion) and pulling (traction) is significantly lower than most other metals, including stainless steel.
Breakable by Shock: Similar to hardened steel, it is breakable under strong, direct impacts.
Hard but Difficult to Work: Its hardness (grade 9 on the Mohs scale) requires special diamond tools for trimming and cutting, as no other metal can cut it.
