Aṣa 1060 Iwe Aluminiomu: Grades, Ibinu, Sizes and Buyer’s Guide

Ifihan

Aṣa 1060 aluminum sheet is one of the most widely ordered commercially pure aluminum plates in the world.

As a 1xxx-series grade with a minimum 99.60% aluminum content, 1060 combines excellent formability, ipata resistance, electrical and thermal conductivity and weldability with a low, stable price

—which makes it the default choice for signage, building cladding, insulation jacketing, lamp reflectors, igbona ooru, stamping and deep-drawn parts that do not need high strength.

Ordering it as a “custom” product means fixing the temper, sisanra, sheet size, surface finish and cut dimensions to your product rather than accepting stock plate.

This short guide covers the composition and mechanical properties of 1060, how to choose the temper, standard sizes and weights, aṣoju awọn ohun elo, how it compares with 1050, 1100 ati 3003, and what to specify when ordering factory-direct.

Composition and Mechanical Properties

The controlled chemistry (fun GB/T 3190, iwuwo %) keeps iron and silicon low so conductivity and corrosion resistance stay high:

Ida	Al	Ati	Fe	Ku	Mn	Mg	Zn	Ti
1060	≥99.60	≤0.25	≤0.35	≤0.05	≤0.03	≤0.03	≤0.05	≤0.03

 

Mechanical properties change sharply with temper, so the same 1060 sheet can be supplied soft and deep-drawable or hard and rigid:

Ibinu	Agbara fifẹ (MPa)	Ilọsiwaju	Ohun kikọ
O (onmealled)	sunmọ. 60-100	25-40%	Rirọ julọ; o jinlẹ, alayipo, o pọju formability
H12 / H22	sunmọ. 75–115	10–20%	Quarter-hard; light forming
H14 / H24	sunmọ. 95–135	6-15%	Idaji-lile; the common general-purpose and sign temper
H16 / H26	sunmọ. 120– 160	3-10%	Three-quarter-hard; stiffer panels
H18	sunmọ. 160–190	2-8%	Kikun-lile; rigid, limited forming

 

Values vary slightly with thickness and standard; always confirm the tensile and yield range on the mill certificate for your gauge.

Standard Sizes, Surfaces and Weight

1060 sheet is produced from about 0.2 si 6 mm (plate to 200 mm+ on request), in widths up to roughly 2600 mm and lengths to 12,000 mm. Common stock and cut sizes include 4×8 ft (1219×2438 mm), 4×10 ft, 1000×2000, 1220×2440, 1250×2500 and 1500×3000 mm, plus fully custom blanks cut to your drawing.

Anodized or color-coated (PVDF/PE)	Curtain wall, orule, durable outdoor signage
Embossed stucco / five-bar tread	Insulation jacketing, anti-slip and decorative sheet

 

Weight is easy to calculate at a density of 2.71 g/cm³: kg per m² = thickness (mm) × 2.71. A 4×8 ft sheet covers about 2.972 m².

Sisanra	kg / m²	Weight per 4×8 sheet

Custom Options, Quality Control and Ordering

A custom 1060 order can specify temper (O, H12/H14/H16/H18 or H22/H24/H26), thickness and tolerance, sheet or blank dimensions, edge type (slit or sawn), dada pari, protective film, anodizing/coating color, embossing and packaging. Fabrication services often include laser, plasma or water-jet cutting, ṣigọgọ, punching, drilling and CNC blanks made to drawing.

Quality control covers thickness and flatness, width/length and diagonal tolerance, Didara dada (ko si scratches, awọn abawọn, oil or roll marks on critical faces), tensile properties by temper and alloy chemistry on the mill test certificate;

ISO 9001 mills support SGS/BV/TUV inspection. Sheets are normally interleaved with protective film, packed on wooden pallets or in wooden cases with moisture-proof wrapping for export.

Pricing follows the aluminum ingot base plus a processing fee, with thinner or wider gauge, custom cutting, surface treatment and small quantities adding cost; compare suppliers per ton and per finished blank on identical temper, iwon, size and finish, under FOB/CFR/CIF terms (commonly 30% deposit with balance against the bill of lading).

Ipari

Aṣa 1060 aluminum sheet is the economical, easy-to-fabricate pure-aluminum workhorse for signage, isọdi, igboru sara, reflectors and formed parts.

Specify the temper from how the panel is processed (O for deep forming, H14/H24 for general and sign use, H18 for rigidity), fix thickness and cut size, choose the surface finish, and buy on mill certificates, dimensional tolerances and approved samples rather than price alone.
