Aluminum fasteners and screws: Lightweight, durable and efficient
Aluminum screws and fastners are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and have good thermal conductivity. They are made of aluminum, a light and robust metal. Aluminum screws and other aluminum fasteners are ideal for applications where weight plays a role, such as in the aerospace industry. Aluminum screws and fasteners are corrosion resistant, which makes them suitable for use in humid or corrosive environments. This makes them ideal for use in humid or corrosive environments, such as those commonly found in the marine and food industries. Their good thermal conductivity makes aluminum screws a good choice for applications where heat needs to be dissipated. They can transfer heat efficiently, making them a good choice for applications where heat needs to be dissipated, such as in computer hardware or electronics.
The indispensable role of aluminum fasteners in the industry
Aluminum screws are indispensable in industry, especially in areas where lightweight materials are used. But why are aluminum screws so important?
Here are some reasons for using aluminum fasteners:
- Preload force: Compared to steel screws, aluminum screws maintain their preload forces in light metal components much better. This is a decisive advantage when it comes to the durability and reliability of structures.
- Thermal expansion: Due to their higher coefficient of thermal expansion, aluminum screws fit better in light metal environments. This contributes to the stability and safety of structures that are exposed to high temperature fluctuations.
- Recycling: Aluminum screws facilitate the recycling of aluminum castings. This is an important contribution to sustainability and environmental friendliness in the industry.
- Weight savings: Aluminum screws contribute to weight savings in moving system parts, such as robots or handling systems. This can significantly increase the efficiency and performance of these systems.
- Corrosion resistance: In contact with magnesium, aluminum screws mitigate the corrosion problem. This increases the service life and reliability of components made from these materials.
- New screw fastening technology: The use of aluminum screws creates a new screw fastening technology, the application possibilities of which are being further expanded by technological advances.
- Strength properties: Due to the special manufacturing process, strength properties are achieved that are comparable to a screw of strength class 5.6 made of steel (tensile strength 490 - 700 MPa) with only approx. 1/3 of the weight!
- Aluminum screws P60 and P65: Screws made of aluminum P60 and P65 are mainly used in areas where high corrosion resistance is required for the component (e.g. seawater-resistant aluminum screws for shipbuilding) and/or a low weight is required. In both cases, the aluminum screws made of P60 and P65 are ideally suited.
These properties make aluminum screws a valuable resource in the industry. However, it is important to note that the specific requirements may vary depending on the application. If you have any questions about aluminum screws and their use in your specific context, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Aluminum screws: A lightweight solution for heavy industrial requirements
Due to their unique properties, aluminum screws and fasteners are indispensable in a wide range of industries.
Here are some examples of their diverse applications:
Corrosion-resistant application:
Aluminum screws are particularly resistant to corrosion, making them ideal for use in environments with high salt content, such as ship and boat building. They are also an excellent choice for use in windows and doors, signage and traffic guidance systems, halls and masts as well as in apparatus and container construction.
High electrical conductivity:
Aluminum screws and fasteners have high electrical conductivity, which makes them an excellent choice for cable construction and high-voltage technology as well as communications and telecommunications technology.
Low weight and stability:
Despite their low weight, aluminum screws are extremely stable. This makes them ideal for use in vehicle and motorcycle construction, motorsports and tuning, mechanical engineering as well as sports and gardening equipment.
The strength of Sopral P60 and P65 aluminum screws
Our aluminum screws are not only lightweight and corrosion resistant, but also remarkably strong. The strengths of aluminum screws can be seen especially in the main types Sopral P60 and Sopral P65:
Sopral P60 bolts and nuts are characterized by a high tensile strength of 490 - 560 MPa and a yield strength of 420 - 480 MPa. These values ensure excellent performance under load, making them ideal for a wide range of industrial applications.
Our Sopral P65 countersunk head screws go one step further. They offer an impressive tensile strength of 550 - 600 MPa and a yield strength of 490 - 530 MPa. These increased values mean they can withstand even greater loads, making them an excellent choice for particularly demanding applications.
Both types of aluminium screws are anodized to protect their surface and extend their service life. They are also anodized and greased to ensure smooth installation and reliable operation. And to top it all off, they are available in an unobtrusive, colorless finish (oai) that blends seamlessly into any design aesthetic.
