• Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel is generally more corrosion-resistant than aluminum.
  • Strength: Stainless steel is stronger and more durable but also heavier.
  • Weight: Aluminum is lighter, making it ideal for applications where weight is a concern.
  • Cost: Aluminum is typically less expensive but may require more maintenance over time.
  • Applications: Aluminum is commonly used in lightweight structures, while stainless steel is preferred for strength, durability, and hygienic requirements.
