1100, 1145, and 3003 Fin
These alloys are manufactured into various serpentine fin formations for use in heat transfer applications. The basic function of the aluminum fin is to efficiently transfer heat.
Common alloy fin stock, which includes 1100, 1145, and 3003, is utilized in charge air coolers, evaporators, condensers, radiators, humidifiers, and baseboard heaters. Over the past 10-15 years, aluminum fin has replaced copper in many applications due to its light weight, increased conductivity, and corrosion resistance. At Lynch Metals, our major markets are aerospace and automotive, and these aluminum alloys are utilized in those applications.
Our precision slitting equipment was engineered to slit as light as .001” at speeds up to 1600 feet per minute. We hold very tight width tolerances with tight, ribbon wound coils with no burr.

Number 8 brazing sheet is typically used in vacuum brazing applications. It’s a two-sided clad product with a 3003 core and a 4004 cladding, and is the dominant product utilized when vacuum brazing is performed inside a vacuum chamber vessel. Temperature is uniformly maintained on the part when heating in a vacuum, which greatly reduces residual stresses due to slow heating and cooling cycles. This process can significantly improve the mechanical and thermal properties of the material, thus providing unique heat treat capabilities. No. 7 has one side clad and No.8 has two sides clad. No. 13 and No. 14 brazing sheet is also used in vacuum brazing applications. Both have a heat treatable core alloy of 6951 and a clad alloy of 4004. Due to the added strength of the 6951 core alloy, this product is utilized in aerospace applications predominantly. No. 13 has one side clad and No.14 has two sides clad.
