Hot Rolled 1050 Aluminum Coil

Hot Rolled 1050 Aluminum Coil

Hot rolled 1050 aluminum coil is the most frequently applied specification in the cookware industry. In addition to cookware, aviation, automobile, ship and other transportation manufacturing industries also use 1050. Of course, regular alloys for cookware include 1050, 1070, 1100, 1060, 3003 and 5052 etc. And main thicknesses are 0.3mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, 1.0mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm, 3.0mm, etc.

Hot Rolled 1050 Aluminum Coil Characteristics 

The characteristics of hot rolled 1050 aluminum coil include light weight, good corrosion resistance and good elongation. In fact, 1050 coil contains 99.5% aluminium that is known for low density and hardness. An aluminum weighs only one third of a steel disc of the same size. 

Besides, a strong corrosion resistance of aluminum does not indicate it has no reaction with other elements, but that it reacts to oxygen swiftly and generates oxide aluminum that is further resistant to most corrosive chemicals. This layer, however, is so thin that hot rolled 1050 aluminum coil needs to be thickened and improved by surface treatments like anodizing or color coating, during which anodized and pre-painted aluminum circle discs are developed.

Specifications of Hot Rolled 1050 Aluminum Coil

The peculiarities of hot rolled 1050 aluminum coil fall on rolling method and temper. Tempers of aluminum products incorporate O, H12, H14, 16, H22, H24, H26, H18, H32, H34, H36, H111, H112 and so on, among which O stands for the full annealing state, namely, the softest state of all. This suggests outstanding tensile strength and further processing properties (deep drawing, spinning).Different from cold rolling, hot rolling makes thick aluminum bulks into thin pieces at high temperatures, transforming structures and improving mechanical properties of finished products. Therefore, hot rolled aluminum coil withstand stronger exterior forces and display better deep drawing properties.
