Reviewed technical and procurement guidance · 10 August 2026

Aluminum Products

Aluminum products are selected by registered alloy, complete temper, product form, specification, dimensions, surface and fabrication route; alloy number alone cannot define strength, corrosion behavior or purchase acceptance.

Product forms

Specifications and dimensions

  • Rolled products: sheet, coil, strip and foil
  • Tubular products: extruded, seamless drawn or welded pipe as specified
  • Full temper, dimensional tolerance, surface class and protective packing are product-specific

Standards and supply condition

  • Aluminum Association alloy and temper designation framework
  • ASTM B209/B209M and product-specific ASTM or EN standards according to form

Manufacturing and processing

  • Casting, homogenizing, hot rolling, cold rolling or extrusion establish the product form.
  • Annealing, strain hardening, solution heat treatment, quenching and aging establish the ordered temper.

Typical applications

  • Transport, marine and structural fabrication
  • Building envelope, HVAC and general sheet metal
  • Packaging, electrical shielding and moisture barriers

Quality and acceptance controls

  • Verify the registered alloy and complete temper designation against the certificate and ordered product standard.
  • Check dimensions, applicable tolerance table, flatness or straightness, surface class, edge and permitted defects.
  • Control film, interleaving, dryness, contact materials, handling and export packing to prevent staining and damage.

Include in your RFQ

  • Registered alloy and complete temper designation
  • Governing product specification and unit system
  • Dimensions, tolerances, quantity and grain-direction requirement
  • Surface class, finish, film, edge and processing requirement
  • Mechanical, conductivity, ultrasonic or other test and certificate requirements
  • Packing, moisture protection, destination and delivery term

Selection limits

  • Typical properties are not guaranteed values unless the ordered product specification and temper require them.
  • Different product forms of the same alloy may have different temper availability, tolerance and acceptance requirements.
