1K

1xxx Series

1050 · 1100

Pure aluminum with minimum 99% Al content. Delivers excellent corrosion resistance and outstanding electrical and thermal conductivity. Lower mechanical strength but highly workable and formable.

Key Properties: Electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, high formability

Applications: Electrical bus bars, chemical equipment, heat sinks, decorative trim, food packaging

2K

2xxx Series

2011 · 2024

Copper-alloyed aluminum delivering high strength and excellent machinability. These alloys respond well to heat treatment, achieving mechanical properties comparable to mild steel. Reduced corrosion resistance requires protective finishing.

Key Properties: High strength, good machinability, heat treatable

Applications: Aerospace structural components, automotive parts, screw machine products, military hardware

3K

3xxx Series

3003 · 3105

Manganese-alloyed aluminum offering moderate strength with excellent formability and good corrosion resistance. Approximately 20% stronger than 1xxx series alloys while maintaining superior workability for complex profiles.

Key Properties: Good formability, moderate strength, corrosion resistance

Applications: Heat exchangers, roofing and siding, cooking utensils, HVAC components, storage tanks

5K

5xxx Series

5052 · 5083

Magnesium-alloyed aluminum renowned for exceptional corrosion resistance, particularly in marine and saltwater environments. Offers good weldability and moderate-to-high strength without heat treatment.

Key Properties: Marine-grade corrosion resistance, weldability, fatigue strength

Applications: Marine structures, shipbuilding, automotive panels, pressure vessels, bridge railings

6K

6xxx Series MOST POPULAR

6061 · 6063 · 6082

The most widely used extrusion alloys in the industry. Magnesium-silicon alloyed aluminum provides an outstanding balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and surface finish quality. Highly versatile and heat treatable with excellent extrudability.

Key Properties: Excellent extrudability, good surface finish, versatile, weldable

Applications: Structural frameworks, architectural systems, window and door frames, curtain walls, general engineering, automotive chassis

7K

7xxx Series

7075 · 7005

Zinc-alloyed aluminum delivering the highest strength of all aluminum alloy series. These premium alloys are heat treatable and achieve tensile strengths approaching those of structural steel, while remaining significantly lighter.

Key Properties: Highest strength, heat treatable, excellent fatigue resistance

Applications: Aerospace structures, defense components, sports equipment, high-performance bicycle frames, rock-climbing gear
