Key Features of 1060 Aluminum Circle
Excellent Formability
1060 aluminum has excellent forming characteristics and is suitable for deep drawing, spinning, stamping and other forming processes.
High Thermal Conductivity
Its high thermal conductivity makes 1060 aluminum circle suitable for cookware, kitchenware and other applications requiring efficient heat transfer.
High Electrical Conductivity
The high aluminum purity also provides good electrical conductivity, making 1060 suitable for selected electrical and conductive applications.
Good Corrosion Resistance
1060 aluminum provides good corrosion resistance for many general industrial and consumer-product applications.
1060 Aluminum Circle Properties
1060 aluminum is particularly suitable for applications where high aluminum purity, formability, thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity are more important than high mechanical strength.
| Property | 1060 Aluminum Characteristics |
|---|---|
| Aluminum Purity | Approx. 99.6% minimum |
| Formability | Excellent |
| Corrosion Resistance | Good |
| Thermal Conductivity | High |
| Electrical Conductivity | High |
| Weldability | Good |
| Strength | Relatively low |
| Deep Drawing Performance | Excellent with suitable temper |
As a reference, published material data for 1060-H12 reports thermal conductivity around 230 W/m·K and electrical conductivity around 62% IACS, although actual values depend on temper and applicable material requirements.
1060 Aluminum Circle for Cookware
1060 aluminum circle is widely used as a raw material for cookware and kitchenware because of its excellent formability, high aluminum purity and good thermal conductivity.
Different diameters, thicknesses and tempers can be selected according to the required spinning, stamping or deep-drawing process and the design of the finished cookware product.
Applications of 1060 Aluminum Circle
- Pots and pans
- Cookware components
- Kitchenware
- Deep-drawn aluminum products
- Spinning products
- Lighting components and reflectors
- Electrical and conductive components
- Signs and decorative products
- General industrial stamped parts
Which 1060 Aluminum Circle Temper Should You Choose?
Choosing the appropriate temper is important because it affects formability, hardness and the subsequent manufacturing process.
1060-O Aluminum Circle
Provides high formability and is commonly considered for deep drawing, spinning and applications requiring significant deformation.
1060-H12 / H14 Aluminum Circle
Provides increased hardness while maintaining useful formability for general spinning, stamping and forming applications.
1060-H16 / H18 Aluminum Circle
Provides higher hardness and strength than softer tempers, but with reduced formability.
If you are unsure which temper is suitable, send us your finished product, forming method, thickness and diameter requirements. We can help evaluate a suitable specification.
1060 Aluminum Circle vs 1050 Aluminum Circle
Both 1050 and 1060 belong to the commercially pure 1000-series aluminum family and offer excellent formability, corrosion resistance and conductivity.
1060 Aluminum Circle: contains approximately 99.6% minimum aluminum and is often selected when higher aluminum purity and conductivity are important.
1050 Aluminum Circle: contains approximately 99.5% minimum aluminum and also provides excellent formability, thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance.
For many forming applications, both alloys may be considered. The final choice should be based on the required chemical composition, forming process, performance requirements and applicable material standard.
