Aluminum Suspended Platform vs Steel Suspended Platform 2025.06/09

Suspended platform is a kind of equipment used for aerial work in construction. It is often used in exterior wall decoration, glass curtain wall installation, concrete pouring and other projects. It is an important tool for modern building maintenance and construction. The suspended platform must have sufficient strength and stability. Modern suspended platforms are mainly made of aluminum or steel, and both materials have their own advantages.

Compared with steel structures, aluminum is lighter, which means that aluminum suspended platform materials are easier to move and install. Aluminum alloy suspended platforms are easier to move and lift, and the manpower and material costs required for transportation are smaller, while also saving the time required for assembly and erection. Installation does not require any special tools, and a limited number of components can easily slide into place, making it safer and more suitable for short-term, efficient projects.

Steel suspended platforms can provide strong support and can easily withstand strong winds and rain. Even in more extreme situations, such as earthquakes, steel suspended platforms can stand tall. In this regard, aluminum suspended platforms are more affected by bad weather. Please note that both suspended platform systems need to be fixed when they reach a certain level. Please check local regulations to understand the rules that apply to your workplace.

Rainwater can cause steel to rust, and stainless steel parts are also affected by corrosion. If the correct bolts or locking devices are not used, this process may be accelerated. Aluminum hanging platforms will not rust, and the aluminum oxide formed on the surface can also prevent further deterioration.

Steel hanging platforms are moderately expensive. Although aluminum alloy hanging platforms are more expensive at first, in the long run, the durability of the material and the lightweight advantages mentioned above will make this type of hanging platform more advantageous.

In short, steel hanging platforms are suitable for large-scale construction scenes. Due to their heavy weight, additional anti-gravity systems are required for balance. Aluminum hanging platforms have become a more ideal choice in construction and aerial operations due to their light weight, corrosion resistance, high strength, good processing performance, easy installation, economy and environmental protection.

The aluminum alloy hanging basket of Shenxi Machinery Group Co., Ltd. is deeply trusted and favored by users. Its products are widely used in famous Chinese high-rise buildings such as the world's tallest building with an altitude of 818 meters, the new CCTV building in Beijing, the new TV tower in Guangzhou with an altitude of 610 meters, and the only seven-star hotel in China, Sheraton Huzhou, as well as major engineering projects in the United States, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Russia and other countries.
