A duralumin [[Misting]] is known as a '''Duralumin Gnat'''. An Allomancer burning duralumin instantly uses up any metals being burned simultaneously, releasing an enormous burst of power from those metals. Duralumin itself is not completely consumed like metals it is burned in concert with, but it still continues to burn away at a steady rate.{{book ref|woa|5}}{{book ref|woa|8}}
 
The use of duralumin could seriously hurt a [[Mistborn]]. While burning [[tin]], the Mistborn could be shocked by the sensory overload as well as become temporarily numb, blind, and deaf. A [[Steel|Push]] or [[Iron|Pull]] could become so strong it can feel like the Mistborn is being torn apart.{{book ref|mb2|8}}{{book ref|mb2|11}}

A duralumin [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Connector'''. Duralumin is used to store Spiritual connection[[Connection]]. For example, filling a duraluminmind can be used to reduce other people's awareness and friendship of the FeruchemistConnector, as these Spiritual connectionsConnections become stored away.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}}
 
Tapping the metalmind will allow the userConnector to form stronger connectionsConnections, possibly depending on what connectionsConnections was stored. It can allow Connectors to form trust relationships with others much faster, for example.
 
[[Southern Scadrian]]s use Spiritual connectionConnection to enable them to communicate with others on foreign lands.{{book ref|mb6|22}}
 
Duralumin Feruchemy can also change one's Spiritual connectionConnection to a planet, which can help [[worldhopper]]s with magic systems. Connectors do not have the inherent ability to worldhop, however.{{wob ref|1021}} Tapping a duraluminmind on a [[Shardworld]] other than [[Sel]] would prevent a Connector from using Selish magic.{{wob ref|2560}}
 
== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a Hemalurgic spike, duralumin steals [[Connection]] and [[Identity]].{{file ref| Hemalurgy table.jpg | Hemalurgy Table}}
