Materials of Construction

AirPro offers a wide range of materials to construct the fan wheel, airstream accessories, or the entire fan. Whether your application involves high operating temperatures, caustic contaminants, or explosive environments, AirPro has the most appropriate, highest-quality materials, including:

When our engineers are working on a consultation to determine and design the right fan for your application, they will specify the best materials for your unique situation. It’s not possible to detail every choice or combination here, but instead we will cover two types of preferred fan material as an example.

Aluminum Fans

We often build our fans using different types of aluminum. While not used to build the entire fan, aluminum can be used to build some of the most critical fan components – the wheel and housing.

It is important to note that heavy-duty construction includes size and scale, as well as materials of construction, features, and accessories. We build our fans to work hard and last for years!

Aluminum Fan Application Example

Spark Resistant Construction: Spark Resistant Construction (SRC) is the technical term for industrial fans classified as explosion-proof. Spark Resistant Construction including Aluminum is an AMCA requirement or recommendation when dust, fibers, gases, vapors, or liquids could cause an explosion in the case of any kind of spark.
