In the world of Aluminium materials, 1060 Aluminium Strip stands out for its exceptional properties and wide-ranging applications. This comprehensive guide aims to provide you with an in-depth understanding of 1060 Aluminium Strip, covering its specifications, characteristics, applications, advantages, and comparison with other Aluminium strips.

What is 1060 Aluminium Strip?

1060 Aluminium Strip is a commercially pure Aluminium alloy, composed of a minimum of 99.6% Aluminium. Renowned for its formability, electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and lightweight nature, it serves as a preferred material across various industries.

Specifications of 1060 Aluminium Strip

Understanding the specifications is crucial for selecting the right material for your project. Here are the key specifications of 1060 Aluminium Strip:

Tempers

The temper indicates the hardness and strength of the Aluminium strip, achieved through different heat treatments:

• Soft HO (h0)
• H11, H12, H14, H16
• H111, H112, H114

Equivalent Grades

Different standards may refer to 1060 Aluminium Strip by various names:

Electrical Properties

The electrical properties of 1060 Aluminium Strip make it an excellent conductor:

Formability

1060 Aluminium Strip’s excellent formability allows it to be shaped into various forms using techniques like rolling, stamping, and bending.

Conductivity

With a high conductivity of about 62% IACS, it’s particularly suitable for electrical and electronic applications.

Thermal Conductivity

The strip’s thermal conductivity of about 230 W/mK makes it an excellent thermal conductor for efficient heat transfer.

Corrosion Resistance

Good corrosion resistance makes it suitable for harsh environments, especially resistant to atmospheric corrosion.

Lightweight

Lightweight properties make it ideal for applications where weight reduction is crucial, such as in the transportation industry.

Typical Sizes of 1060 Aluminium Strip

Huasheng Aluminium offers a variety of sizes to meet diverse requirements:

Advantages of 1060 Aluminium Strip

Production Process

The production process is simple, with mature technology, offering a significant price advantage over other high-end alloy Aluminium strips.

Mechanical Properties

Good elongation and tensile strength meet conventional processing requirements and showcase high formability.

Weldability

Capable of gas welding, hydrogen atomic welding, and contact welding, though not easy to braze.

Machinability

While it has high plasticity, corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity, its strength is low, and heat treatment cannot enhance its machinability.

Applications of 1060 Aluminium Strip

1060 Aluminium Strip finds use in various applications due to its unique properties:

Transformer Winding

Used for making transformer winding materials, improving efficiency and stability.

Injection Bottle Sealing

Common in many countries due to ease of manufacturing and cost-effectiveness.

Mask Nose Bridge Strips

Produced by stamping, offering a smooth surface and high breaking force.

Heat Sinks

Used to manufacture radiators for computers, LED lights, etc., for excellent heat dissipation.

Comparison with 1050 Aluminium Strip

While both are pure Aluminium alloys, differences exist:

• Chemical Composition: Aluminium 1050 contains 99.5% aluminium, while aluminium 1060 has 99.6% aluminium.
• Mechanical Properties: 1050 has slightly higher tensile strength and elongation.
• Applications: 1060 has a slightly higher Aluminium content and better formability, and is suitable for areas with high requirements for formability. Overall, the chemical composition and mechanical properties of 1050 and 1060 are very similar, and there is not much difference in their applications. In practical applications, due to its price advantage, 1050 can almost replace 1060 Aluminium.
• Price: 1050 is slightly cheaper due to composition and properties differences.
