1100 Aluminum Foil
1100 aluminum foil is commercially pure aluminum foil with a minimum aluminum content of 99.0%. It is valued for excellent formability, corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. Available in O, H12, H14, H16 and H18 tempers, 1100 foil is widely used for capacitor components, heat-transfer products, laminated packaging structures, insulation, decoration and general industrial fabrication.
Haomei Aluminum supplies customized 1100 aluminum foil coils based on required thickness, width, temper, coil weight, core size, surface quality and export packaging requirements.

What Is 1100 Aluminum Foil?
1100 aluminum foil is produced from AA 1100, a commercially pure aluminum alloy belonging to the 1xxx series. The alloy is non-heat-treatable, so its mechanical properties are adjusted mainly through cold working and annealing rather than precipitation heat treatment. W hen the foil will be stamped, embossed, folded, laminated, deep drawn or converted into finished products.
Its main advantages are high ductility, good corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, useful electrical conductivity and straightforward processing. These characteristics make 1100 a practical choice when a foil needs to be formed, folded, stamped, slit or handled repeatedly without requiring high structural strength.
The correct 1100 foil specification depends on the final application. Soft O temper is generally selected for demanding forming operations, while H12, H14, H16 and H18 are considered when higher hardness or stiffness is preferred.
Material selection should be based on application requirements, not simply alloy designation. For deeper forming, a softer temper may be preferable. Where better handling strength or dimensional stability is required, a harder temper may provide a better fit.

How to Choose the Right 1100 Aluminum Foil Temper
O Temper 1100 Aluminum Foil
O temper is fully annealed and offers the highest ductility among the common 1100 foil tempers. It is usually selected for embossing, folding, deep drawing, shaping, decorative processing and applications where the material must conform to complex shapes without cracking.
H12 and H14 Temper 1100 Aluminum Foil
H12 and H14 tempers provide a balance between workability and strength. They are suitable for general industrial converting, insulation, laminated structures, decorative components and applications that require more stiffness than O temper.
H16 and H18 Temper 1100 Aluminum Foil
H16 and H18 are harder tempers produced through cold working. They provide improved stiffness and shape retention, but with reduced elongation. H18 foil may be selected for products requiring a harder foil condition, such as certain stamping, rigid converting and capacitor-related applications.
| End Use Requirement | Suggested Temper | Reason for Selection |
| Deep drawing and complex forming | O | Maximum ductility and better resistance to cracking during forming. |
| Embossing and decorative shaping | O or H12 | Good forming behavior with adequate handling performance. |
| General industrial conversion | H12 or H14 | Balanced workability and stiffness. |
| Insulation and shape-retaining products | H14 or H16 | Improved rigidity compared with soft foil. |
| Higher stiffness or rigid stamping requirement | H18 | Higher cold-worked strength with lower elongation. |

FAQ – 1100 Aluminum Foil
What is 1100 aluminum foil?
1100 aluminum foil is made from AA 1100, a commercially pure aluminum alloy containing at least 99.00% aluminum under the applicable alloy specification. It offers good formability, corrosion resistance, and useful thermal and electrical conductivity for a range of industrial applications.
What thicknesses are available for 1100 aluminum foil?
A typical planning range is approximately 0.006–0.20 mm, although the actual available thickness depends on temper, width, tolerance, production capability, and order quantity. The exact thickness and tolerance should be confirmed before ordering.
What is the difference between O and H18 1100 aluminum foil?
O temper is annealed and provides high ductility for forming and bending. H18 is a full-hard temper with higher hardness and strength but lower elongation. The appropriate temper depends on the forming process and the performance required in the finished product.
Is 1100 aluminum foil suitable for food packaging?
1100 aluminum foil can be used in suitable food-contact packaging structures when the supplied material, surface condition, coatings, adhesives, processing aids, and finished product meet the applicable requirements of the destination market. Specific compliance requirements should be confirmed before production.
Is 1100 aluminum foil suitable for heat exchangers?
1100 aluminum foil can be considered for heat-transfer components where thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and formability are important. For applications that require a higher strength level, 3003 aluminum may provide a more suitable balance of strength and formability.
Is 1100 aluminum foil better than 1060 aluminum foil?
Neither alloy is universally better. 1060 has higher aluminum purity and is often selected when electrical or thermal conductivity is a primary consideration, while 1100 offers a practical combination of purity, formability, corrosion resistance, and general-purpose performance.
Can 1100 aluminum foil be slit to custom widths?
Custom slitting can be available depending on the foil thickness, finished width, tolerance, coil specification, and processing equipment. When requesting a quotation, provide the required slit width and tolerance so the production configuration can be confirmed.
How is 1100 aluminum foil priced?
The price of 1100 aluminum foil depends on aluminum market conditions, thickness, width, temper, order quantity, processing requirements, packaging, and destination. A quotation based on the complete specification is more reliable than a generic price per kilogram or ton.
What information is needed for a 1100 aluminum foil quotation?
Please provide the alloy, temper, thickness, width, quantity, end application, delivery destination, and any required standards or inspection documents. For slit rolls, also include the core ID, coil dimensions, winding requirements, and finished slit width where applicable.
Which 1100 aluminum foil temper is best for deep drawing and embossing?
O temper is generally preferred for deep drawing, bending, embossing, folding, and other operations that require high ductility. Where additional stiffness is needed, H12 or H14 may be considered depending on the forming process and finished-product requirements.
Does Haomei Aluminum provide 1100 aluminum foil samples?
Sample availability depends on the required alloy, temper, thickness, width, and stock condition. Customers can provide their target specification to confirm available sample sizes, preparation requirements, and delivery arrangements.
