Aluminum coil from a Mexican mill
Cold-rolled aluminum coil made in Mexico from the furnace. Gauges from 0.008 to 0.134 in (0.2 to 3.4 mm), widths from 12 to 48 in and alloys 1050, 1100 and 3105, in the temper your process needs, with a mill test report per lot.
Aluminum coil is cold-rolled aluminum wound on a core, ready to feed stamping, forming, cut-to-length or coil-coating lines.

Why buy it from the mill
A service center slits and resells coil it bought from someone else; the mill makes it. That means alloy and temper are set to your spec, the origin of the metal is documented from the furnace, and a quality issue is answered by the people who rolled the coil.
Almexa direct-chill casts and hot rolls, the process that gives better mechanical properties than continuous casting in the alloys that need it.
Applicable quality systems
- IATF 16949 for automotive
- ISO 9001
- Mill test report per lot
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between 1100 and 3105 aluminum coil?
1100 is 99% pure aluminum: very ductile, excellent for forming and corrosion resistance, with low strength. 3105 carries manganese and some magnesium: stronger and stiffer, used for painted sheet, construction and parts that need rigidity.
What is the maximum coil width Almexa makes?
48 in (1,220 mm) in soft 1000 and 3000 series alloys, and 36 in (914 mm) in hard 5000 series alloys, per plant as of September 2026.
What is the minimum order for aluminum coil?
Quotes are per metric ton and depend on alloy and gauge. State your monthly volume and the sales executive tells you whether full coils or a partner service center is the better fit for small volumes.
Does the coil ship with a mill test report?
Yes. Every lot ships with a certificate of chemistry and mechanical properties, which also documents the melt-and-cast origin for your customer or customs broker.
