1050 Aluminum Plate Sheet
1050 aluminum plate is a soft-textured, high-purity aluminum alloy sheet, belonging to the 1xxx series of commercially pure aluminum. With an aluminum content of no less than 99.5%, it exhibits outstanding corrosion resistance, electrical and thermal conductivity, as well as excellent ductility, making it highly favored in both industrial and decorative applications.
Thanks to its high-purity characteristics, 1050 aluminum plate offers good plasticity, making it easy to bend, stamp, and form. It is suitable for applications with high requirements for processing performance. At the same time, its surface has high reflectivity and a clean appearance, often used in products where both aesthetics and functionality are important. However, compared with other aluminum alloys, 1050 aluminum plate has relatively low mechanical strength and is therefore not suitable for load-bearing or structural applications, making it more appropriate for non-structural uses.
In terms of manufacturing process, 1050 aluminum alloy is a wrought alloy, typically processed into sheets through rolling or extrusion rather than casting. Its production process is mature and relatively simple, with a lower overall cost, making it one of the most widely used aluminum alloys in traditional industries. Its chemical composition and performance are similar to those of 1060 aluminum plate, and it is often considered a cost-effective choice in practical selection.
Due to its combination of excellent corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and formability, 1050 aluminum plate is widely used in chemical equipment, architectural decorative components, electrical conductors, and various products that require high purity and stability. Although this alloy cannot be strengthened through heat treatment, its strength can be moderately improved through cold working to meet diverse application requirements.

Factors Affecting 1050 Aluminum Price
Raw Material Cost
Fluctuations in aluminum ingot prices are a major influencing factor
The price of 1050 aluminum plate is usually 2000-5000 CNY/ton higher than pure aluminum ingots
Specification Factors
Thinner or thicker plates are priced higher
Wider widths result in higher prices
Special sizes (e.g., extra-wide, extra-long) are more expensive
Processing Technology
Surface treatments (anodizing, spraying, etc.) increase cost
Special processing (embossing, punching, etc.) increases cost
High precision requirements increase cost
Purchase Volume
Bulk purchasing generally results in better pricing
Small-batch purchasing tends to be more expensive
1050 Aluminum Plate Selection Guide
Electronics and Electrical Field
Prioritize high purity (above 99.7%) 1050 aluminum plates
Pay attention to conductivity and surface quality
Select appropriate thickness and temper based on specific application
Construction and Decoration Field
Focus on surface treatment quality and weather resistance
Choose suitable thickness based on usage environment
For outdoor applications, PVDF coated surfaces are recommended
Packaging Field
Pay attention to material cleanliness and surface quality
Choose proper thickness and temper according to packaging requirements
Food packaging must comply with relevant hygiene standards
Transportation Field
Focus on lightweight and corrosion resistance
Select appropriate thickness and temper according to structural needs
For automotive applications, consider composite use with other materials
1050 Aluminum Limitations
- Low mechanical strength — not suitable for load-bearing structural applications
- Poor machinability — tooling wears quickly; requires low-speed machining
1050 Aluminum vs. Other Pure Aluminum Grades
- 1050 vs 1060: Similar composition (1060 contains ≥99.6% aluminum), comparable performance; 1050 is more widely used due to cost advantage
- 1050 vs 1100: 1100 contains a small amount of copper, offering slightly higher strength but slightly lower corrosion resistance than 1050
1050 Aluminum Comparison with Similar Alloys
| Alloy | Strength (MPa) | Conductivity (% IACS) | Primary Use |
| 1050 | 75–110 | 61–63 | Forming, reflectors |
| 1060 | 70–105 | 61–62 | Electrical components |
| 1100 | 90–120 | 59–62 | General fabrication |
| 3003 | 110–145 | 40–50 | Cookware, pressure vessels. |
1050 Aluminum Plate Packaging and Transportation
- Packaging Handling: 1050 aluminum plates are coated to ensure the surface remains scratch-free.
- Transportation Packaging: The plates are packaged in plastic bags or kraft paper and placed with desiccants to keep them clean and dry.
- Transportation Conditions: During shipping, use enclosed containers, ship holds, or open vehicles, and cover with rain and snow-proof tarps to prevent water, rain, or snow from entering.
- Wooden Pallets and Reinforcement: Use wooden pallets and secure with steel bands to avoid collisions during transportation and maintain the geometric shape of the plates.
- Export Packaging: Export products are packed in wooden crates or racks, with fumigation marks and certification provided.
- Special Requirements: Packaging is done according to other customer requirements. During transport, if rain covers are added, ensure they prevent water ingress due to weather, and avoid jolting during loading and unloading to ensure the safe delivery of the aluminum plates to the user.
1050 Aluminum Anti-Oxidation Guide
Although 1050 aluminum coils are corrosion-resistant, when the aluminum coils are placed in water or rain, the surface is easily oxidized, resulting in spots on the surface, which affects the use of customers. Therefore, the storage environment of aluminum coils is very important. Here we give you the following suggestions:
- The storage environment of 1050 aluminum plates should be dry, bright, well-ventilated, and non-corrosive.
- Aluminum coils 1050 should be kept away from leakage in rainy and snowy weather as much as possible.
- Strengthen the management of rolling oil, and control its water content below 0.4%.
- Aluminum coils should be sealed, and an appropriate amount of desiccant should be placed in each coil.
- When transporting from a low-temperature area to a high-temperature and high-humidity area, do not open the sealed packaging of 1050 aluminum coils immediately.
- The humidity of the wooden shaft and wooden board of the packaging box shall not exceed 18%, and the temperature of the packaged color aluminum coil shall not exceed 45°C.
1050 Aluminum Related questions
What is a 1050 grade aluminum?
A 1050 grade aluminum refers to a specific alloy with aluminum as its primary component and 99.5% purity.
What is the difference between 1100 and 1050 aluminium?
The main difference between 1100 and 1050 aluminum lies in their chemical composition, with 1100 containing a small amount of copper, while 1050 is pure aluminum.
What is the difference between 1050 and 3003 aluminum?
The difference between 1050 and 3003 aluminum lies in their alloy composition, with 3003 containing manganese as an alloying element, imparting improved strength and corrosion resistance compared to 1050.
