Isis Metals, located in Manila, Philippines, has built a solid reputation as a reliable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch Aluminium Bars and Rods. The company stands out for its precision engineering, consistent product quality, and commitment to international standards. The Aluminium bars and rods crafted by Isis Metals are made from a range of aluminum alloys, each carefully chosen to fulfill specific mechanical, corrosion resistance, and fabrication needs. These products find their way into various industries, including construction, automotive, aerospace, marine, and electrical sectors, thanks to their impressive strength-to-weight ratio, resistance to corrosion, and versatility.
Aluminium bars and rods come in different compositions based on the alloy grade, spanning from commercially pure aluminum to heat-treatable alloys that incorporate elements like magnesium, silicon, copper, and zinc. Their mechanical properties differ accordingly, with tensile strengths ranging from around 50 MPa in pure aluminum to over 500 MPa in high-strength alloys. Most aluminum bars and rods boast good corrosion resistance, excellent machinability, and can be easily shaped or welded. Their lightweight nature, combined with strength and durability, makes them perfect for both structural and decorative uses.

Yes, aluminum bars are corrosion-resistant due to the formation of a natural oxide layer on the surface, which protects them from rust and deterioration, especially in various environmental conditions.
Yes, aluminum rods can be customized in size and length according to specific requirements. Manufacturers can cut, shape, and tailor the rods to meet precise specifications for various applications.
Aluminium bars perform poorly in high-temperature environments, as they lose strength and can soften at temperatures above 150-200°C. They are prone to oxidation and are unsuitable for extreme heat applications.
These bars and rods serve a wide array of applications, such as creating structural components, automotive parts, aircraft fittings, marine hardware, electrical conductors, and architectural features. They also play a role in machinery, tooling, transportation equipment, and consumer products. The adaptability of aluminium bars and rods, along with their strength, corrosion resistance, and ease of fabrication, makes them a go-to choice for engineers, designers, and manufacturers across a broad spectrum of industries.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
Isis Metals is a leading manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of high-quality bars, rods, and forgings, catering to various industries in Manila, Philippines
