1060 aluminum sheet is a high-purity pure aluminum product with an aluminum content of ≥99.6% — you can call it the "purest" aluminum sheet in the aluminum family. Its core characteristics boil down to three words: pure, soft, tough.
Core Parameter Table
| Parameter Category | Specific Details | Key Functions |
|---|---|---|
| Material Attribute | 1000-series industrial pure aluminum; Al content ≥99.6% | High purity, low impurities, stable performance; superior to 1050 aluminum sheet |
| Thickness Range | 0.2–8mm (regular); customizable 0.2–200mm ultra-thin/extra-thick options | Thin sheets for packaging/electronic components; thick sheets for structural parts |
| Surface Finishing | Mirror, brushed, color-coated, anodized (customizable) | Mirror/brushed for decoration; anodized for industrial use — balances aesthetics and practicality |
| Common Tempers | O (soft), H14 (half-hard), H18 (hard) | O-temper for deep drawing; H18 for high strength; H14 for balanced performance — fits diverse processing needs |

FAQ
Q1: How to choose between 1060 and 1050 aluminum sheet?
A: The difference lies in aluminum content: 1060 (≥99.6%) has slightly higher purity than 1050 (≥99.5%), delivering better electrical/thermal conductivity and more uniform surface treatment results.
Choose 1050 for general applications (e.g., ordinary decoration, simple packaging) when budget is a priority.
Choose 1060 for scenarios requiring high conductivity or surface precision (e.g., electronics, high-end decoration) — it offers higher cost-effectiveness for these demands.
Q2: Can 1060 aluminum sheet be welded? Will it crack during processing?
A: Yes, it can be welded! It supports multiple welding methods including gas welding, TIG welding, and resistance welding, with firm, crack-free joints.Processing is also worry-free: O-temper (soft) aluminum has excellent ductility with an elongation rate of over 25%, suitable for deep drawing, stretching, and bending without cracking. H18-temper (hard) is ideal for parts that require no secondary processing.
Q3: Can the thickness tolerance of 1060 aluminum sheet be guaranteed?
A: Absolutely! Regular thickness tolerance is controlled within ±0.01–0.05mm, with customizable high-precision options available. Our rolling mills ensure stable control — the thickness difference across a whole coil is no more than 0.03mm. You won’t encounter the problem of "labeled 1.0mm but actual 0.95mm" negative tolerance, saving you from unnecessary costs.
Q4: How to maintain mirror/brushed 1060 aluminum sheet to prevent scratches and oxidation?
A: It’s simple:
The sheet comes with a PE protective film — do not tear it off during transportation and installation to avoid scratches.
Clean with a soft cloth and clean water; avoid steel wool or strong acid cleaners that can damage the surface.
For long-term outdoor use, apply a hard anodized coating to enhance scratch and fingerprint resistance.
Store in a dry, well-ventilated indoor area; avoid contact with acid-alkaline substances to prevent oxidation and discoloration.
Q5: Can 1060 aluminum sheet be anodized? Is it suitable for outdoor use?
A: Definitely! 1060 aluminum sheet is especially suitable for anodizing — the oxide film formed is uniform and dense, improving both appearance and corrosion resistance.It is fully suitable for outdoor use: the anodized film resists atmospheric and rain erosion. As long as you choose a thickness of 1.0mm or above, it will not fade or deform over long-term use, making it a common choice for outdoor billboards and curtain walls.
