      It depends on what’s in the warehouse. The only place I’ve seen significant aluminum corrosion was inside a vac frame hood with years of corrosive fumes in it. But, I’m sure there’s a middle ground. Aluminum isn’t inert, but it’s better than raw iron at resisting corrosion.

        Really depends on the grade of material. Aluminum has several different grades of varying hardness, ductility, resistance. Same as steel. Corrosion is the bane of most usable metals and industries are constantly researching methods to fight it
