Aluminium Alloys

 

Technically Pure Aluminium – Series 1000

Technically pure aluminium of the 1000 series refers to aluminium alloys that are close to 100% aluminium, meaning the content of any impurities and alloying elements is minimal.

These alloys are also known as 99.99% aluminium, meaning that impurities and alloying elements do not exceed 0.01%.

 

Copper Alloys – Series 2000

Aluminium-copper alloys, series 2000, are specific aluminium alloys that contain copper as an alloying element.

These alloys are known for their high strength, corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability.

 

Manganese Alloys – Series 3000

Aluminium-manganese alloys, series 3000, contain manganese as the alloying element.

These alloys are known for their corrosion resistance.

 

Silicon Alloys – Series 4000

Aluminium-silicon alloys, series 4000, contain silicon as the alloying element.

These alloys are recognized for their corrosion resistance and hardness, which is important for certain industrial applications such as engines, ships, and more.

 

Magnesium Alloys – Series 5000

Aluminium-magnesium alloys, series 5000, contain magnesium as the alloying element.

These alloys are known for their excellent corrosion resistance.

 

Magnesium-Silicon Alloys – Series 6000

Aluminium-magnesium-silicon alloys, series 6000, contain both magnesium and silicon as alloying elements.

These alloys are suitable for applications where strength, corrosion resistance, and good machinability are required.

They are important in various industries, including the automotive industry, shipbuilding, and more.

 

Zinc Alloys – Series 7000

Aluminium-zinc alloys, series 7000, contain zinc as the alloying element.

These alloys are known for their high strength and corrosion resistance, which is crucial for applications where these properties are key.

They are widely used in the aerospace industry, automotive production, and other industrial sectors.
