Aluminum foil stock refers to the raw material in the form of thin aluminum coils, which are processed and used to produce various aluminum foil products. This material is typically manufactured through a process called rolling, where large aluminum billets are passed through rollers at high temperatures to reduce their thickness.
Key details about aluminum foil stock:
- Thickness:
- The thickness of aluminum foil stock can vary, but typical gauges range from 0.2 mm-0.4 mm Widths.
- Aluminum foil stock is available in various widths, from narrow rolls (around 10 cm) to wide rolls (over 1 meter), depending on the intended use.
- Grades:
- 1050: 99.5% pure aluminum, used in applications where corrosion resistance is needed.
- 1100: Commercial grade aluminum, often used for household and food packaging.
- 3003: Alloyed with manganese, providing increased strength while maintaining excellent formability and corrosion resistance.
- 8011: Often used in food packaging and pharmaceuticals due to its combination of strength and resistance to corrosion.
