Weight for weight it might not be any better than wood, as a rod of the same weight would only have 58% of the diameter, and resistance to torque scales with cross-section * tensile strength * diameter. The other question would be cosmetic; people make solid wood chairs (as opposed to things with tubes) for appearances, even though it's heavier.
