The Advantages of Aluminum Hardware Brackets over Plastic
Advantages of Aluminum Hardware Brackets over Plastic:
- Plastic is an insulator, while aluminum is electrically conductive. Plastic will need a special coating to achieve a similar result with aluminum (albeit inferior).
- Plastic does not ground, thus it requires extra grounding metal straps. Aluminum, being a metal, is easily grounded.
- Aluminum has a natural shield against RF and EMI, preventing radio frequency. Plastic does not block radio frequency.
- Aluminum brackets are much stronger than plastic injection moldings.
- Aluminum metal is stiff, while plastic injection moldings are too elastic for numerous applications.
- Plastic molded parts do not do well for chrome plating.
- Plastic can not obstruct electromagnetic emissions.
- Plastic does not do well with many coatings, while aluminum brackets do better on the department.
- Aluminum parts are stable, whereas plastic injection parts are not quite dimensionally stable.
- Plastic molded parts do not do well in conditions of hot and humid temperatures. Aluminum hardware is more heat resistant.
- One big problem with plastic is that they are not recyclable. Only less than 3% of the plastic will be recyclable. Nearly all metals, aluminum die castings in particular, are always readily recyclable.
- Aluminum die castings are non-hazardous and pose no problems to the government.

How are Aluminum Military Parts Made in 2022?
How are Aluminum Military Parts Made. It is not surprising anymore if you find out that even military devices have aluminum parts. Indeed, this is true. The operations of military personnel can never be complete and successful without the use of this material. Some of the most common military parts made in aluminum include armored vehicle fire suppression system housing, missile nose piece, fire sensor housing, pump parts, and a lot more.
However, as compared to other aluminum-made materials, aluminum military parts are made differently. It greatly depends on the military device to which it will be attached or used into. In short, aluminum military products are in a made-to-order basis. Unlike other parts that are easily available in the market, a person or an organization that needs military parts needs to order one first before they can have the part they need.
More often than not, an aluminum military part manufacturer works on a specific part in less than a month from the date of order. In most cases, the order can be made in around two weeks’ time. Once the manufacturing of the part is finished, they are conveniently shipped to whoever made the order. With all these, aluminum military parts are made in a longer period than other devices. This is mere because they need to be carefully crafted to promote efficiency at all times. These military parts cannot afford to become failures.

Pioneer Diecasters History
My previous article from 09.21.22 I announced my disappointment that Pioneer Die Casting Company closed ” Pioneer Diecasters Inc Closing ” In 2012, I had lunch with the owner of Pioneer, Carl H. Spahr, and he detailed much of the history he has had at Pioneer Die Casting Company since he started working there.
They were open over 80 years ago and incorporated in the state of California for over 70 years. Carl’s father started doing business as Pioneer Diecasters the 1930s and according to public records, he incorporated as Pioneer Diecasters, Inc on February 23, 1949.
Mr. Spahr worked closely with Lefty Harris around that time in the 30s. Lefty started Arrow Die Casting Company later. Carl started working at Pioneer in the 1940s or 1950s. They were primarily operating in the aluminum die castings business.
During our lunch, in June of 2012 Carl said he was in his early 70s. Pioneer Diecasters company employed about 17 people at the time. He had a very lean manufacturing operation. Carl said he visits the plant two or three days a week. He has a good manager that has been with him over 20 years and he runs everything. Carl said over the many years of running the company he has had issues with legal labor disputes in the 50’s, problems with the IRS in the 60’s and litigations from disgruntled employees in the 80’s. These were difficult times on occasion, but Carl said he still loved owning Pioneer Diecasters, Inc.

I am saddened to see the loss of another die casting company competitor in California.

Making Aluminum Lighting Fixtures in 2022
Making Aluminum Lighting Fixtures
Aluminum is the choice of many companies in creating the various products that they offer their customers because this metal alloy has the characteristics most, if not all manufacturers are looking for. First of all, aluminum is very light compared to other metal alloys, but at the same time, it is very durable and very strong. This metal alloy can last for a long time. Also, this metal is cheap, making it ideal for mass production. With that, Aluminum Lighting Fixtures are usually needed in bulk orders.
Aluminum Lighting Fixtures come in several shapes and sizes such as standing fixtures, recessed light fixtures, troffer lighting fixtures, wall-mounted lighting fixtures, and others to name a few. These are used in almost any manmade structure such as tunnels, houses, and buildings, which is why they are usually ordered in bulk. To meet this high number, the best way to create them is by die casting. This is the process by which a metal is cast to form a different shape.
Die casting starts off by exposing the aluminum to extremely high temperatures so that it will become liquid. This liquid would then be poured into pre-prepared molds that will shape the liquid into the desired part. After the mold is filled, it will then be set to cool down. Once the mold or casting cools down, the aluminum inside would then harden, and then you have brand new Aluminum Lighting Fixtures. This process is fast and cheap as well which is why it is ideal for making lighting fixtures.
