Brushed Aluminum Sheets Overview
What is the Brushed Aluminum Sheet?
The aluminum sheet with a matte surface finish achieved through mechanical grinding or belt grinding processes to create unidirectional or cross-directional textures, combining both decorative appeal and functional advantages (such as deburring and enhanced adhesion).
Brushed Aluminum Sheet Textures
- Linear Brushing: Parallel straight lines.
- Random Brushing: Irregular, non-directional patterns.
- Wave Brushing: Wavy texture for visual depth.
- Circular/Spiral Brushing: Rotational or spiral patterns for decorative accents.
- Thread Brushing: Fine linear grooves.
- Cross Brushing: Perpendicular or crisscross textures.
Features & Benefits
- Matte Finish: Reduces glare, ideal for premium designs.
- Scratch Resistance: High surface hardness minimizes daily wear marks.
- Weather Resistance: Suitable for indoor/outdoor use; coating lifespan exceeds 5 years.
- Low Maintenance: Easily cleaned with neutral detergents.
