8006 aluminium alloy is produced using iron, manganese and copper as additives. It is commonly rolled into thin sheets or foils and is often used in heat exchangers due to its corrosion resistance. 8006 aluminium is available as plate.
Chemical composition
| Element | Content (%) |
|---|---|
| Aluminium | ≥ 95.9 |
| Iron | 1.2-2.0 |
| Manganese | 0.3-1.0 |
| Copper | < 0.3 |
Applications
Aluminium 8006 is used in food packing, microelectronics, and in heat exchangers.
