Composition, Performance and Typical Uses of Aluminum Alloy 1060

1060 is formed by adding a small amount of copper element to pure aluminum, which has excellent forming processing characteristics, high corrosion resistance, good weldability and electrical conductivity. Widely used in products with low requirements on strength, such as chemical equipment, sheet metal processing parts, deep drawing or spinning concave vessels, welding parts, heat exchangers, clock surfaces and plates, nameplates, kitchen utensils, decorations, reflectors, etc. .
