PLAIN ALUFOIL

  • This specification covers plain foil, hard and soft temper, which also may be embossed – patterns subject to enquiry
  • This specification also covers “converter” foil, for which a full, separate specification -as from our supplier- is available on request.
  • Unless otherwise specified the alloy will be 1200, which is 99.00 minimum or “commercial” purity.
  • Temper is normally either fully soft (annealed) or fully hard (as rolled).
  • Gauge range normally available, subject to stock or procurement: 9 – 100µ
  • The surface condition of soft foil is considered to be sterile (due to high temperature annealing).
  • Soft foil is oil-free and free unwinding.
