The invention relates to a method for producing a strip made of an AlMgSi alloy in which a rolling ingot is cast of an AlMgSi alloy, the rolling ingot is subjected to homogenization, the rolling ingot which has been brought to rolling temperature is hot-rolled, and then is optionally cold-rolled to the final thickness thereof. The problem of providing a method for producing an aluminum strip made of an AlMgSi alloy and an aluminum strip, which has a higher breaking elongation with constant strength and therefore enables higher degrees of deformation in producing structured metal sheets, is solved in that the hot strip has a temperature of no more than 130&#xb0; C. directly at the exit of the last rolling pass, preferably a temperature of no more than 100&#xb0; C., and the hot strip is coiled at that or a lower temperature.

AlMgSi strip for applications having high formability requirements

The invention relates to an aluminium alloy, the use of an aluminium alloy strip or sheet and a method for producing an aluminium alloy strip or sheet. An aluminium alloy which has only a slight tendency towards intercrystalline corrosion and which at the same time provides high levels of strength and good deformability and which contains standard alloy components so that the recycling of the aluminium alloy is simplified is provided herein.
