Aluminium is much lighter than steel, will not rust and is very strong - just have a look at the
trucks carting gravel and rocks and note that most of the bodies are made from aluminium, as are aeroplanes.
Easy to manoeuvre by hand.
Easy to tow.
You don't
need to paint.
Reflects light and heat.
Fuel consumption towing
a Thommo's aluminium camper trailer is minimised because of their light weight.
Resale
value is retained because of their durability and visual qualities as they don't look chipped or rusty.
Aluminium has a high resistance to corrosion on surfaces exposed to the atmosphere. A thin transparent oxide skin
forms immediately and protects the metal from further oxidation. Unless exposed to some substance or condition, which destroys
this protective oxide coating, the metal remains protected against corrosion. Aluminium is highly resistant to weathering,
even in industrial atmospheres that often corrode other metals. It is also corrosion-resistant to attack by many acids.
Aluminium is non toxic.
Aluminium is also an excellent reflector of radiant energy.
Aluminium has a light reflectivity of over 80%, which has led to its wide use in lighting fixtures and insulating
materials.
Almost any method of joining is applicable - riveting, welding, brazing,
or soldering. A wide variety of mechanical aluminium fasteners simplify the assembly of many products. Adhesive bonding of
aluminium parts has been successfully employed in many applications including aircraft components and some building applications.
These are the characteristics that give aluminium its extreme versatility.
In the manufacture of Thommo's aluminium camper trailers, these characteristics come prominently in to play;
lightweight combined with strength. High resistance to corrosion. Attractive appearance together with high resistance to weathering
and low maintenance requirements. High reflectivity. Non toxic. You can even recycle it.
We're sure when you weigh up the benefits of aluminium you will also join the many happy campers towing
a Thommo's camper trailer and remember aluminium's best known characteristic of being lightweight means less
fuel.
