Alleima® TD ensures consistent performance in elevated temperatures minimizing corrosion and contamination of the cable insulation. This makes it the ideal material for high-temperature applications in industries including:
- Automotive
- Aluminum production
- Gas turbines
- Powder metal production
- Furnaces in Refineries
- Fired Heaters in refineries
- Aerospace engines
Our materials make the difference. Our expertise makes it work
The alloy is backed by the unequalled service support and attention to detail that Alleima customers around the world have enjoyed for years.
We’re in complete control of everything. From R&D, melting, bar production, and extrusion, to cold pilgering and annealing, all at our facilities, through to the delivery of our hollows to our customers. We’re in charge of every link in the value chain for all our materials.
Underpinning our integrated production process is our complete focus on customer satisfaction and support through the highest levels of service. Our unrivalled strengths in R&D, sales, technical marketing, and product management combine as one team to identify and deliver the right materials solutions for our customers.
Control of all stages of production means we can track order progress in real time, so customers have full visibility. Added to that, they have the reassurance of knowing their Alleima® TD order is supported by the Alleima reputation for making materials of the absolute best quality with consistent product performance.
With the first order for Europe secured and interest from elsewhere in the world, Alleima® TD is already turning up the heat in advancing materials and service support for MIC customers.
When we advance, so do our partners
Together with ISOMIL a leading manufacturer of mineral-insulated cables in Germany, we engaged in a mutual product development in September 2021. They recognized the value of our expertise, our people, our quality products, and our well-established knowledge within the industry. The partnership resulted in a firm order for Alleima® TD tubing, with successful delivery in the first half of 2024. Corrosion resistance makes mineral insulated cable ideal for use in areas where there are high temperatures or harsh environmental conditions because it has low flammability, where otherwise failure and replacement could be dangerous or even impossible.
Working with Daniel Bergmann from ISOMIL resulted in a firm order for Alleima® TD tubing. We are now launching our product broadly says Rickard Nikander, Senior Product Manager for High Temperature and Heat Exchanger Tube EMEA. “Working with Alleima we were able to get the right material solutions for our project helping to have an efficient, profitable and sustainable process,” says Daniel Bergmann, Operations Manager
This order typifies our effective teamwork, commitment, and passion to provide what our customers need to be at their best. From technical and commercial sales through the whole supply chain including research and development and product management, we always work together to provide the best material solution and fulfil all the technical requirements for the end user.
Some of our competitors might find today’s MIC market too hot to handle. But it’s no sweat for us.
