What is 1060 aluminum strip

1060 aluminum strip belongs to the 1000 series aluminum alloys. Its density is 2.68 g/cm3. The aluminum content is about 99.6% and other main components are carbon, chromium, iron, manganese, zinc and tin, etc.

1060 aluminum has the characteristics of high plasticity, corrosion resistance, good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, but low strength, not strengthened by heat treatment, poor machinability, and can accept contact welding and gas welding. It is widely used in air discharge pipes, hot water pipes, cold water pipes, heat exchangers, automobile manufacturing, machining and other industrial fields.

1050 aluminum strip contains more than 99.5% aluminum, which is a kind of industrial pure aluminum. 1050 aluminum alloy is formed by adding a small amount of copper to pure aluminum. It has excellent forming and processing characteristics, high corrosion resistance, good weldability and electrical conductivity, but its strength is low.

Its chemical composition and mechanical properties are similar to those of 1060 aluminum alloy, and are basically replaced by 1060 aluminum strips in application. It can be used for gas welding, argon arc welding and spot welding.
