We offer TheseAluminium 1060 Sheets and Plates as per DIN, ISO, JIS or ANSI Standard.
Excellent Formability: Aluminium 1060 is highly formable, making it easy to work with using various methods such as rolling, extrusion, and drawing. This property makes it ideal for applications requiring complex shapes.
Corrosion Resistance: It offers good resistance to corrosion, even in harsh environments. This makes Aluminium 1060 suitable for outdoor and marine applications where exposure to moisture and atmospheric conditions is common.
High Thermal and Electrical Conductivity: Aluminium 1060 exhibits high thermal and electrical conductivity, making it an excellent choice for applications requiring heat dissipation and electrical transmission, such as heat sinks and electrical components.
Lightweight: Like all aluminium grades, 1060 is lightweight, which is advantageous for applications where weight savings are crucial, such as in transportation (automotive, aerospace) and construction.
Reflectivity: It has a high reflectivity, especially in the polished state, making it useful in applications requiring reflection of light and heat, such as in lighting fixtures and solar reflective panels.
Aluminium 1060 Sheets and Plates are vital in petrochemicals, food processing, healthcare, water treatment, pharmaceuticals, power generation, construction, shipbuilding, and agriculture. They ensure secure connections in pipelines, maintain hygiene standards, and withstand demanding conditions due to their corrosion resistance and durability.
Electrical Industry: Due to its high electrical conductivity, Aluminium 1060 sheets and plates are used in manufacturing electrical transformers, capacitors, and busbars.
Architecture and Construction: It is used in architectural applications such as roofing, siding, and decorative uses due to its corrosion resistance and ease of forming.
Packaging: Aluminium 1060 is used in packaging materials such as foil and containers due to its non-toxicity, strength, and ability to withstand high and low temperatures.
Reflectors: Its high reflectivity makes it suitable for use in lighting fixtures and reflectors.
Heat Exchangers: The alloy’s good thermal conductivity makes it suitable for heat exchangers and air cooling systems.
Thickness and Dimensions: Determine the required thickness and dimensions of the sheets or plates based on your application. Aluminium 1060 is available in various thicknesses and sizes, so choose according to the structural and functional needs of your project.
Surface Finish: Consider the surface finish required for your application. Aluminium 1060 sheets and plates can come in different finishes, such as mill finish (raw aluminum), brushed finish, or polished finish. The choice depends on aesthetic preferences, corrosion resistance requirements, and functional needs.
Strength and Formability: Evaluate the strength and formability requirements. Aluminium 1060 is known for its good formability but is not as strong as some other alloys like 3003 or 5052. Ensure the alloy’s strength characteristics align with the structural demands of your project.
Yes, Aluminium 1060 sheets and plates can be recycled after use. Aluminium is highly recyclable without losing its properties, making it economically and environmentally beneficial. Recycling aluminium saves energy and resources compared to producing it from raw materials.
Aluminium 1060 sheets and plates are generally not recommended for direct hygienic and sanitary applications due to surface characteristics that may not meet strict cleanliness standards. Alloys with smoother and more corrosion-resistant surfaces, like 3003 or 5052, are preferred for such applications in food handling or medical environments
Yes, Aluminium 1060 sheets and plates can be susceptible to galvanic corrosion when in contact with dissimilar metals in certain environments. Proper insulation or protection methods, such as coatings or barriers, are recommended to prevent galvanic corrosion in such cases.
Aluminium 1060 sheets and plates are generally not recommended for underground applications due to their susceptibility to corrosion in moist and acidic soils. Alloys with higher corrosion resistance, such as 3003 or 5052, are more suitable choices for prolonged exposure to underground conditions.
