What is 1100 aluminum alloy?
1100 Aluminum Alloy is an aluminum alloy material that contains 99% aluminum metal. It also has 0.9% silicon and iron in its alloy composition. Our common aluminum foil is manufactured using 1100 aluminum.
Below is a detailed description of 1100 aluminum alloy:
Characteristics of 1100 aluminum alloy:
1. not heat treatable for strengthening: this means that it cannot be heat treated to increase its strength.
2. high corrosion resistance: this alloy has good corrosion resistance, especially after anodizing, its corrosion resistance can be further improved.
3. good electrical and thermal conductivity: it has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity.
4. good ductility and formability: this makes it possible to produce all kinds of aluminum by pressure processing.
5. good weldability: 1100 aluminum alloy can be processed and joined by various common welding methods.
6. excellent tensile strength: the tensile strength of 1100: σb (MPa) ≥ 95
It is manufactured by the following processes:
- Aluminum extrusion: Processing to obtain different cross sections by extrusion. It is used to manufacture aluminum profiles of various shapes.
- Welding: It can be processed and joined by common welding methods.
- Cutting: Aluminum alloys are processed into desired shapes and sizes by cutting.
- Aluminum Stretching: It can be manufactured into bars or strip products.
Our common 1100 aluminum alloy products:
- We commonly use it for interior ceilings, exterior wall decorations, door and window frames.
- It is made into aluminum foil for packaging food, medicine, etc. to keep the product fresh and pure.
- Electronic parts, electronic housings and aluminum heat sinks, etc.
- It is used to make bicycle frames, wheels and other parts.
- It can be used to make golf clubs, skis, and other sports equipment
Final Summary:
1100 aluminum alloy is an excellent alloy material. It can be processed into various types of aluminum products. It provides convenience for our life and food. With the innovation of aluminum processing technology, it will become the material for more products.
