Product Description

1050 aluminium sheet is also known as EN AW-1050, AA1050, Al99.50, 1050 H14/H24/H18, pure aluminum sheet 1050, and belongs to the 1xxx series commercial pure aluminum.

Compared with 1100 aluminum sheet, 1050 has higher purity (≥99.50% Al), while 1100 is ≥99.00% Al. 1050 features better corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity, whereas 1100 has slightly higher strength and formability for deep drawing. Both are non-heat-treatable and easy to fabricate.

Key Advantages: Excellent corrosion resistance, high electrical and thermal conductivity, outstanding workability, good weldability, and cost efficiency. It is lightweight, durable, and suitable for mass production.
Typical Applications: Electrical conductors, heat exchangers, lighting reflectors, building facades, signage, cookware, chemical equipment, and general sheet metal parts. It is widely used in construction, electrical engineering, food equipment, and transportation.

With stable performance and competitive pricing, 1050 aluminum sheet is one of the most popular pure aluminum grades for industrial and daily use.

Choose 1050 Aluminium Sheet over 1100 when higher purity, better corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity are needed. It is preferred for chemical-resistant applications, signage, lighting, and HVAC parts. 1050 also offers superior surface finish and formability for deep drawing and decorative uses, while being cost-efficient for low-stress structural components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between 1050 and 1100 aluminium sheet?
1050 aluminium sheet has a higher aluminium purity (≥99.50%) compared to 1100 aluminium sheet (≥99.00%). This higher purity gives 1050 superior electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance, while 1100 offers slightly higher strength and deep drawing formability.
What are the primary applications of 1050 aluminium?
Typical applications include electrical conductors, transformer windings, busbars, heat sinks, heat exchangers, food industrial equipment, cookware, chemical containers, lighting reflectors, building facades, and signage.
Can 1050 aluminium sheet be heat-treated?
No, 1050 aluminium is a non-heat-treatable alloy. Its strength properties are instead achieved through work hardening (cold working) and annealing processes.
What tempers are commonly available for 1050 aluminium sheet?
Commonly supplied tempers include O (fully annealed), H12, H14, H16, H18, H22, H24, and H26, allowing clients to choose the appropriate hardness and formability for their specific application.
Why choose 1050 over 1100 for chemical and industrial projects?
1050 is preferred when higher corrosion resistance, chemical stability, and exceptional electrical/thermal conductivity are required. It also provides a superior surface finish and excellent weldability.
