Hoʻohana nui ʻia ke kila ikaika loa haʻahaʻa-alloy i nā moku kiʻekiʻe, nā mea pale kaua pale pōkā, nā ʻāpana kūkulu koʻikoʻi, nā pūpū pale kaomi, nā mea kaua maʻamau, ka petrochemical, ka ʻoihana mana makani, ka ʻoihana mana nukelea a me ka ʻoihana kaʻa. Pili loa kona laulā noi i kona ikaika kiʻekiʻe, a pono e koho ʻia nā huahana pili e like me nā koi kūikawā o ka ʻoihana e hōʻike i ka waiwai maikaʻi loa.
He ikaika ka paʻakikī o ke kila ikaika kiʻekiʻe me ke koʻikoʻi, a hoʻohana nui ʻia i nā pūpū kaomi, nā ʻano i hoʻokaumaha ʻia, nā papa pale kaua, a me nā kīʻaha kaomi kiʻekiʻe.
Hoʻohana nui ʻia nā papa kila pale pōkā ikaika loa no nā huahana hana nui e like me nā ʻaʻahu pale pōkā, nā mahiole, a me nā kaʻa lawe kālā. ʻO ke kūpaʻa maikaʻi a me ka hana pale pōkā kiʻekiʻe nā mea kaulana nui.
He kiʻekiʻe ka maʻemaʻe o ke kila maraging, ikaika kiʻekiʻe, plasticity maikaʻi a me ka paʻakikī, ʻoi aku ka ikaika hua kiʻekiʻe a me ka paʻakikī haki. No ka hana ʻana i nā brackets nui, nā ʻāpana, nā hale kaomi, nā ʻau hoʻoili mana, nā kīʻaha kaomi kiʻekiʻe, nā ʻōmole, nā pūnāwai a me nā ʻāpana i huki hohonu ʻia.
