High-performance metals for the country’s defence

As a leading manufacturer of aluminium and copper, we are proud to serve the critical needs of the defence industry. Our high-quality, precision-engineered products are essential components in the construction of a wide range of military equipment, from armoured vehicles and aircraft to naval vessels and weapons systems. We meet the stringent requirements of the military, ensuring durability, reliability, and optimal performance in demanding environments.

Our solutions

Our aluminium billets are crafted with precision and quality, offering exceptional strength, corrosion resistance and lightweight properties. These billets are ideal for the production of a variety of defence components, including armour plates, aircraft parts, missile casings and marine hardware.

Aluminium alloy and copper slabs from our facility are known for their excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and antimicrobial properties. These slabs are essential for applications such as electrical wiring, heat exchangers, marine components and electronic devices.

In the critical field of defense, Hindalco Specialty Alumina plays a transformative role in ensuring protection, precision, and operational efficiency. Ceramic armor, a cornerstone of modern defense technology, relies on alumina for its exceptional hardness and impact resistance. These properties enable armor plates and inserts to stop or deflect ballistic projectiles, ensuring the safety of personnel and assets. Beyond armor, alumina is also integral to radar domes (radomes), which are critical for shielding radar systems in defense aircraft, ships, and ground installations. With its high mechanical strength, thermal stability, and excellent dielectric properties, alumina ensures reliable radar performance by protecting sensitive components from environmental stresses while allowing effective signal transmission.

Defence solutions not only need to be effective but also need to improve the survivability of personnel on and off the battlefield. Hindalco offers a wide range of light, strong and corrosion-resistant advanced alloys in addition to many standard alloys. Each alloy is available in T, O or F temper, enabling any type of forming by customers. We also deliver specific shapes as per customers’ technical specifications as well as international standards. Across air, land and sea, our defence innovations maximise speed, agility and survivability.
