FAQs About Our 8 In. Aluminum Strips

What's the most accurate way to cut these 8-inch aluminum strips?

A miter saw or circular saw with a carbide-tipped, non-ferrous metal blade is best for precise cuts. Tin snips or shears can be used for smaller, simple trims. Always wear safety glasses and gloves.

Are these aluminum strips suitable for ceiling installations?

These strips are designed for walls and wainscoting. For ceiling applications, we strongly recommend consulting a professional contractor to ensure proper support and safety.

What is the benefit of using 3003 aluminum alloy for these strips?

Our 3003 aluminum alloy offers excellent workability, very good corrosion resistance, and moderate strength. This makes our strips lightweight, durable, and ideal for projects where both form and function are important.

Will these aluminum strips be affected by rust?

No, aluminum does not rust. It forms a natural, protective oxide layer that prevents corrosion. This makes it suitable for various indoor and some light outdoor applications.

What's the recommended method for bending these aluminum strips?

For professional, precise bends, a sheet metal brake is recommended. For simpler, DIY bends, you can carefully use V-blocks and a mallet. Lightly scoring the bend line can help guide the bend but must be done carefully to avoid cracking.

Do you offer bulk pricing for contractors?

Yes, we offer bulk pricing for contractors, B2B, and large-volume orders. Please contact us at info@tread-ware.com for a custom quote on 8-inch aluminum strips.
