Aluminium Alloy 1080 combines high aluminium purity, excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, good corrosion resistance and outstanding formability. It is suited to applications where purity and conductivity are key material requirements.
EN AW-1080A contains a minimum of 99.80% aluminium, supporting applications requiring commercially pure aluminium.
High ductility allows the material to be formed, bent, rolled and fabricated in suitable tempers.
Provides good general resistance to atmospheric corrosion and many common environmental conditions.
High conductivity makes the alloy useful for electrical components and heat-transfer applications.
Aluminium Alloy 1080 is selected where high purity, formability, corrosion resistance and electrical or thermal conductivity are important.
Used for electrical conductors and components requiring high electrical conductivity and high-purity aluminium.
Used in selected heat-transfer components where thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance are required.
Suitable for selected equipment and components requiring high-purity aluminium and suitable corrosion performance.
Used for reflective products, formed sheet, decorative components and general fabrication applications.
Consider the required temper, product form, thickness and service environment when selecting Aluminium Alloy 1080.
Alloy 1080 provides excellent ductility and formability and is suitable for bending, rolling and formed-sheet applications in appropriate tempers.
Aluminium Alloy 1080 is not intended for high-strength applications. Verify temper-specific properties and consider higher-strength alloys where elevated mechanical strength is required.
The commonly listed Werkstoff / EN cross-reference for Aluminium Alloy 1080 is 3.0285. Treat this as a grade comparison, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify chemistry, product form, condition and governing specification against the supplier certificate before substitution.
No. Aluminium Alloy 1080 is non-heat-treatable. Its strength can be increased through cold working and temper selection.
Yes. Aluminium Alloy 1080 generally provides good resistance to atmospheric corrosion and many common service environments.
