What Is 1100 Aluminum Strip?
1100 aluminum strip is a commercially pure aluminum material generally considered for applications requiring workability, corrosion resistance, and general forming capability. Final material selection should not be based on the alloy designation alone. Buyers should consider required forming method, strength, corrosion environment, conductivity, surface condition, joining process, coating requirement, dimensional tolerance, and applicable product standard.
Key Characteristics
- Commercially pure aluminum grade
- Good workability
- Good corrosion resistance
- Suitable for general forming operations
- Final suitability depends on temper and fabrication process
Typical Applications
1100 Aluminum Strip may be considered for the following applications when the selected temper, dimensions, surface condition, and applicable material specification are suitable:
- Cookware-related components
- Chemical equipment components
- Lighting parts
- General sheet metal work
- Decorative aluminum products
