'''Duralumin''' is the internal enhancement pushing metal. An Allomancer burning duralumin is able to greatly enhance other metals they are burning by releasing all of the power of the metals at once instead of over time. Feruchemists can use duralumin to store [[Connection]], and when used as a Hemalurgic spike, duralumin steals Connection and [[Identity]].
Duralumin is the alloy paired with [[aluminum]] in the Metallic Arts.
== Alloy Composition ==
The duralumin used in the Metallic Arts is ninety-six percent
== Allomantic Use ==
She carefully kept the secret of duralumin and used it to great advantage on several occasions later in combination with both physical{{book ref|mb2|11}}{{book ref|mb2|38}}{{book ref|mb2|43}}{{book ref|mb2|55}}{{book ref|mb2|57}} and mental{{book ref|mb2|20}}{{book ref|mb2|27}} Allomancy. [[TenSoon]] and Zane eventually found out about duralumin, however, allowing Zane to use it against her.{{book ref|mb2|47}}
Duralumin became Allomantically useless in practice over the centuries after the [[Catacendre]] due to the fading away of Mistborn, though the Southern Scadrians made Feruchemical use of it in their unsealed metalminds.
However, knowledge of it was not lost even in the North; it eventually became commonplace with the development of the right metallurgical processes,{{book ref|mb6|3}}{{book ref|mb6|22}}{{book ref|mb7|23}} and once the [[Set]] began working with Hemalurgy, it became relevant again to specific people. The Set gave [[Dumad]] a spike for duralumin Allomancy, which he used effectively in combination with Steelpushing.{{book ref|mb7|23}}{{book ref|mb7|25}}
After Dumad's death, [[Wax]] used the spike on himself and used his newly duralumin-enhanced Steelpushing to reach the [[Pewternaut]] A16.{{book ref|mb7|66}}{{book ref|mb7|69}} [[Wayne]] then became Mistborn by burning [[lerasium]] and used duralumin with [[bendalloy]] in order to prematurely detonate the bomb on board the ship, which required precise timing that would have been impossible to achieve otherwise.{{book ref|mb7|71}}
