In the production of its extrusions, Profall uses the most robust, innovative, and effective materials available to ensure high-quality products for its customers. In this context, anticorodal aluminum represents a key component in specific applications.
It is a highly versatile alloy that can be used on a large scale for multiple applications, consistently ensuring optimal performance and long-lasting durability.
Anticorodal aluminum is an alloy based on aluminum, magnesium, and silicon, belonging to the 6000 series (typically 6060, 6061, 6082). This composition makes it particularly suitable for extruding lightweight, strong, and customizable profiles.
These alloys are classified as “soft alloys” and offer a good balance between mechanical strength, workability, and corrosion resistance, especially when subjected to heat treatments.
Anticorodal aluminum belongs to the 6000 series aluminum alloys, a category of heat-treatable alloys. It is composed of magnesium (0.4–1.7%), manganese (0.5–1%), and silicon (1–5%).
Its main characteristics include:
All materials used by Profall are certified according to the strictest safety standards, ensuring high long-term efficiency.

Choose Profall and the quality of anticorodal aluminum.
Anticorodal is a lightweight alloy made of aluminum, magnesium, and silicon, typically belonging to the 6000 series (such as 6060, 6061, or 6082). It stands out for its balance of mechanical strength, ductility, lightness, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for extruding industrial, technical, and architectural profiles.
“Anticorodal treatment” generally refers to two types of processes:
Both treatments enhance the material’s performance in demanding applications (e.g., outdoor, humid, or saline environments).
Compared to other alloys, 6082 anticorodal aluminum offers an excellent balance between mechanical strength, lightness, and workability. It is easy to weld, highly resistant to corrosion even in aggressive environments, and responds very well to heat and surface treatments such as anodizing.
It is widely used in:
