1090 aluminum wire is a commercially pure aluminum wire with a minimum aluminum content of 99.0%. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, high electrical and thermal conductivity, and very good formability. Compared with 1100 aluminum, 1090 provides slightly higher purity, making it ideal for electrical applications, chemical environments, and industrial uses where maximum conductivity and corrosion resistance are required.
