5 Reasons Why Aluminum is Better Than Steel
There are more than five reasons you should change from steel to PullEase™ EMT. But these are among the most important ones.
- Weight – Aluminum is significantly lighter than steel, which makes it easier to handle and transport. This can lead to cost savings in transportation and labor costs.
- Corrosion resistance – PullEase™ aluminum EMT is naturally resistant to corrosion, which means it does not rust or degrade as easily as steel. This makes it a good choice for use in damp or outdoor environments.
- Non-magnetic – PullEase™ doesn’t conduct magnetism, so you won’t have to worry about electromagnetic interference damaging your sensitive electronic equipment.
- Cost-effectiveness – Aluminum is a fraction of steel’s price, making it a cost-effective option for many different kinds of projects.
- Better thermal conductivity – Aluminum has better thermal conductivity than steel, which means it can dissipate heat more efficiently. This makes it a good choice in high-temperature environments, such as the automotive and aerospace industries.

Is aluminum EMT as strong as steel EMT?

PullEase™ is approved for use in most United States and Canadian jurisdictions. However, it is essential to check with local building and electrical codes to ensure that it is approved for use in your area.
Is aluminum EMT suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, aluminum EMT is suitable for outdoor use as it is corrosion-resistant. It is often used in damp or humid environments, such as food processing plants or outdoor environments where steel EMT is at risk of rusting.
