|---|---|---|
| Soft Al | 8 / 9 / 12 / 25 / 50 / 100 | |
| Hard Al | 9/12/25/50 |
Al-foils are available as annealed (soft) and hard-tempered. Our most commonly used alloys are 8079, 1200, 8111 and 8011 with Al content of at least >98%. There are no significant differences in properties between different alloys.
