1200 aluminium low strength tubes suit applications where good ductility is a requirement.
1200 aluminium alloy tubes are a low strength tubing option though its strength is slightly higher than 1050A but has a lower conductivity value. The alloy offers excellent corrosion resistance to chemical and atmospheric attack and has excellent cold-forming properties. The alloy is easily worked and welded. 1200 is classed as a non-heat treatable commercially pure aluminium alloy (also known as a high purity aluminium). Typical applications include heat exchangers, chemical and food processing equipment.
Stock Availability
We have stock 1200 aluminium tubes in a seamless cold drawn condition and a wide range of sizes.
Tube Cutting Service
We offer a complete tube cutting service using a range of in-house equipment. Tubes are cut to tight tolerances to match our clients' needs, and in many cases, this added value service eliminates the need for any additional cutting as the product may meet your size requirements.
