Customer Specified Aluminum Chemistries
C-KOE Metals produces custom aluminum alloys to customer-specified chemistries for manufacturers whose requirements are not met by a standard grade. Using primary aluminum as the base material, we can adjust alloying elements and supply the finished material in pellet, bar, or grain form based on the needs of the application.

When a Standard Grade Doesn’t Meet Your Requirements
A custom aluminum alloy may be appropriate when:
- Your required chemistry falls outside standard commercial grades.
- One or more alloying elements must be adjusted to meet your process requirements.
- You need to evaluate a customer-specified chemistry through trial production.
- You require a custom chemistry in pellet, bar, or grain form.
How We Work
Each custom alloy project begins with a review of the required chemistry, product form, quantity, and quality documentation. We then review sourcing, production, and trial requirements to determine the best path forward for the project.
When appropriate, projects begin with a trial quantity so the chemistry and product form can be evaluated before moving into larger or recurring production. Throughout the process, we communicate clearly about specifications, lead times, and any adjustments needed to support the application.
