What Is 8011 Aluminum Strip?
8011 aluminum strip is an aluminum alloy strip commonly considered for packaging-related components, closures, household products, and selected industrial strip applications. 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
- 8xxx series aluminum alloy
- Suitable for selected packaging-related uses
- Good processability in appropriate conditions
- Good corrosion resistance
- Compliance must be confirmed for final use
Typical Applications
8011 Aluminum Strip may be considered for the following applications when the selected temper, dimensions, surface condition, and applicable material specification are suitable:
- Bottle cap and closure stock
- Packaging components
- Household products
- General formed products
- Industrial strip applications
