- High Purity: 1060 alloy is a high-purity aluminum alloy with stable composition, suitable for applications requiring high-purity aluminum materials.
- Strength: It is a low-strength aluminum alloy, suitable for non-structural applications.
- Workability: It has excellent weldability and formability, including various forming processes such as stamping, cold drawing, deep drawing, and bending.
What Material is 1060?
1060 aluminum alloy is an industrial pure aluminum, known for its high purity and excellent performance characteristics. Its aluminum content is at least 99.6% (by weight), and the remaining components contain trace amounts of copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, silicon, titanium, vanadium, and zinc.
1060 aluminum sheet belongs to the industrial pure aluminum series (1 series). As it does not contain strengthening alloying elements, it cannot increase strength through heat treatment but has excellent plasticity, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity.

1060 Aluminum Sheet Key Characteristics
| Key Characteristics | Description |
| High Purity | 1060 aluminum alloy contains at least 99.6% aluminum, providing exceptional purity. This high purity grants 1060 aluminum alloy excellent performance in various fields, particularly in applications that require high aluminum material purity, offering better corrosion resistance and stability. |
| Excellent Workability | 1060 aluminum alloy offers excellent workability, making it suitable for various processing methods such as stamping, stretching, and cutting. Its excellent forming characteristics make it very easy to process during manufacturing, capable of meeting complex shape and precision requirements, which is why it is widely used across industries. |
| Good Corrosion Resistance | 1060 aluminum alloy exhibits strong corrosion resistance, especially in chemical or marine environments, where it can effectively resist oxidation and corrosion. This property makes 1060 aluminum alloy ideal for use in industries like aerospace, construction, and electronics, where high corrosion resistance is required. |
| High Electrical and Thermal Conductivity | 1060 aluminum alloy has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, making it outstanding in applications that require efficient electrical conductivity. It is particularly suitable for power equipment, cable materials, radiators, and other applications that require high thermal conductivity. |
| Low Strength | Although 1060 aluminum alloy has exceptional workability, its mechanical strength is relatively low. Compared to other high-strength aluminum alloys, it may not have enough load-bearing capacity in high-stress applications. However, it is very suitable for applications that do not require high strength but demand good plasticity and forming performance. |
| High Ductility | 1060 aluminum alloy exhibits extremely high ductility, allowing it to perform excellently in forming processes like stamping, bending, and deep drawing. Its high ductility makes it very suitable for complex forming processes, especially in cases where large-scale deformation is required while maintaining structural integrity and excellent processing performance. |
| Low Strength | 1060 aluminum alloy cannot increase its strength through heat treatment, so it has low strength. However, its strength can be somewhat increased through cold working (such as H14, H18 tempering), though it still does not match other high-strength aluminum alloys. It is suitable for applications that do not require high strength, or when better processing performance and ductility are more important. |

What is the difference between 1050 and 1060 aluminum?
Both 1050 and 1060 aluminum are well-suited for applications requiring high purity, good corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability. However, 1060 is the preferred choice for applications that demand higher electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.
| Property | 1050 Aluminum | 1060 Aluminum |
| Aluminum Content | Minimum 99.5% | Minimum 99.6% |
| Other Elements | Small amounts of iron (up to 0.40%) | Very low amounts of other elements |
| Strength | Slightly lower | Slightly higher |
| Workability | Good machinability; excellent forming characteristics | Excellent machinability; excellent forming characteristics |
| Corrosion Resistance | Good, but slightly lower than 1060 | Better, especially in atmospheric environments |
| Thermal Conductivity | Good | Higher |
| Electrical Conductivity | Good, but lower than 1060 | Higher (around 55% IACS) |
| Common Applications | Heat exchangers, chemical containers, decorative uses | Electrical conductors, chemical processing, decorative elements |
1060 Aluminum Sheet Advantages and Limitations
1060 Aluminum Sheet Advantages
| Advantages | Description |
| Cost-effective | 1060 aluminum alloy sheet is a highly cost-effective material. Due to its higher aluminum content and lower production costs, the 1060 aluminum alloy sheet can meet various application requirements while reducing overall manufacturing costs. This makes it a cost-effective choice in many industrial applications, especially for cost-sensitive projects. |
| Lightweight | 1060 aluminum alloy sheet is very light, with good specific strength and specific stiffness, which helps to reduce structural weight in many applications, especially in aviation, transportation, and construction fields. Reducing weight not only helps improve energy efficiency but also reduces transportation costs, enhancing overall performance. |
| Easy to Manufacture | 1060 aluminum alloy sheet has excellent machinability, making it easy to form, cut, and process. This characteristic of easy manufacturing allows it to adapt to various complex processing techniques, such as stamping, bending, and deep drawing, making it widely applicable in different manufacturing fields and meeting various design requirements. |
1060 Aluminum Sheet Limitations
Poor machinability in soft conditions and lower strength compared to alloy steels.
1060 Aluminum Sheet Manufacturing and Processing Characteristics
- Processing Techniques: supports gas welding, hydrogen atom welding, contact welding, but brazing is more difficult.
- Annealing: rapid annealing (350-410℃), high-temperature annealing (350-500℃) can optimize formability.
- Limitations: poor cutting performance, not suitable for high-precision machining.
1060 Alloy vs Other Materials
Comparison with 6061 Aluminum Sheet:
- Strength: 6061 aluminum alloy has higher strength due to heat treatment (such as T6 state) and is suitable for mechanical parts. 1060 focuses on formability and cost-effectiveness.
- Price: 1060 is significantly cheaper than 6061.
- Applications: 1060 is suitable for sheet metal parts, while 6061 is more commonly used for structural components requiring turning and milling processing.
| Differences | 1060 Aluminum Alloy | 6061 Aluminum Alloy |
| Strength | 1060 aluminum alloy has relatively low strength, focusing on formability and cost-effectiveness. It is suitable for applications that do not bear high loads, especially in scenarios requiring good formability and low cost. | 6061 aluminum alloy significantly improves its strength through heat treatment (such as T6 state), making it suitable for applications requiring higher mechanical strength, such as mechanical parts, aviation, and automotive structural components. |
| Price | 1060 aluminum alloy is significantly cheaper to produce than 6061 aluminum alloy, making it suitable for mass production and price-sensitive applications. | 6061 aluminum alloy is more expensive due to its high strength and additional processing requirements. It is suitable for applications requiring high performance and strength, such as high-end structural components. |
| Applications | 1060 aluminum alloy is widely used in sheet metal parts and components that require good machinability, especially in fields where strength requirements are low. | 6061 aluminum alloy is used for structural components requiring turning and milling processing, particularly in applications requiring high strength and corrosion resistance, such as aerospace, automotive, and heavy machinery. |
1060 aluminum sheet, with its high purity, excellent formability, and low cost, is considered a "universal material" in industrial pure aluminum, especially suitable for scenarios that require low strength but complex forming. Its limitations lie in hardness and cutting performance, and alternative materials (such as 6061) should be chosen based on specific needs.
