Aluminium Alloy 1100 H14 Datasheet

Aluminium Alloy 1100 is a popular grade of aluminium for general sheet metal work where moderate strength is required. Aluminium Alloy 1100 is known for its excellent corrosion resistance, high ductility and highly reflective finish.

Applications for Aluminium Alloy 1100

  • General sheet metal works
  • Lightly stressed panels
  • Architectural flashings
  • Name/number plates
  • Heat exchangers
  • Food containers
  • Light reflectors

Mechanical Properties of Aluminium Alloy 1100

Thickness (mm) Tensile Strength Rm (MPa) Proof Stress 0.2% Rp (MPa min) Elongation A50 (% min)
0.20 – 0.32 110 – 145 95 1
over 0.32 – 0.63 110 – 145 95 2
over 0.63 – 1.20 110 – 145 95 3
over 1.20 – 6.30 110 – 145 95 5
over 6.30 – 25.00 110 – 145 95 7
Mechanical properties are those specified by ASTM B209M−14 for alloy 1100 in H14 temper, for the sheet thicknesses we stock. Alloy 1100 has no table in EN 485-2, so B209 is the governing specification here. Brinell hardness is not specified by B209 and is therefore not listed; it is typically around 32 HB, for information only. Sheet of 40 mm falls outside the H14 thickness range covered by the specification. Certificates to EN 10204-3.1 are available on request.
