Aluminum 1100 Metal Stampings
At Pacific Metal Stampings, we specialize in aluminum 1100 metal stampings. Aluminum 1100, also referred to as commercially pure aluminum, is a wrought aluminum alloy with a minimum aluminum content of 99%. Its exceptional formability and corrosion resistance make it a preferred choice for applications where strength requirements are moderate and workability is critical. Common industries we serve with aluminum 1100 fabrication include aerospace, chemical processing, and electronics. Our reputation is rooted in client-focused service and product quality, and our metal specialists pursue continual improvement through process innovation and training.

Frequently Asked Questions About Aluminum 1100 Metal Stampings
Both are common choices for general fabrication, but they serve different needs. Aluminum 1100 is commercially pure aluminum, offering superior electrical conductivity and maximum formability. Aluminum 3003 adds manganese to the alloy, which increases tensile strength by up to 20% compared to 1100. If your application prioritizes formability and conductivity over strength, 1100 is typically the right specification. If you need moderate added strength without sacrificing workability, 3003 is worth considering.
Aluminum 1100's ductility makes it one of the easier alloys to hold to close tolerances in stamping operations. The specific tolerances achievable depend on part geometry, thickness, and the complexity of the forming operations involved. Contact our team directly with your drawings or specifications, and we will provide a detailed assessment of what is achievable for your application.
Aluminum 1100's high purity means it does not release toxins or affect taste, which makes it acceptable for food and pharmaceutical packaging applications. However, compliance with specific regulatory requirements depends on the finished component's end use and any coatings or treatments applied after stamping. We recommend confirming applicable standards with your regulatory or quality team before finalizing material selection.
