Aluminium doesn't rust, but it does corrode. The aluminum oxide coating is highly resistant and can renew itself in case of damage. Therefore, the aluminum can keep itself relatively safe from corrosion. However, some factors can cause the coat to become unstable, thus exposing the aluminum and that’s when the corrosion occurs.
