Aluminum 1100


INTRODUCTION

Aufhauser Aluminum 1100 is highly resistant to chemical attack and weathering. It is a relatively soft alloy that is very formable and is used extensively in thin gauge and foil products. It has good welding characteristics and is also used as a filler alloy for welding purposes. A desirable characteristic of the alloy is the bright finishes obtained by anodizing.

 

APPLICATIONS

  • Welding filler wire
