Types of Aluminium Sheets According to Alloy
Types of aluminium sheets according to the alloy grade classification, can be divided into eight major series, these series represent different alloy composition and performance characteristics. The following is a detailed introduction of each series of aluminum sheets: 1000 series aluminium sheets (pure aluminum series) Characteristics: purity of 99.00% or more, with good formability and surface treatment, the best corrosion resistance in aluminum alloys. Representative grades: 1050, 1060, 1070, 1100 and so on. Applications: Commonly used in chemical equipment, ventilation ducts and other fields, also used for simple extrusion molding parts for cell phones and other electronic products. 2000 series aluminium sheets (Aluminum-Copper Alloy Series) Characteristics: Higher hardness, but poor corrosion resistance, higher copper element content. Representative grades: 2014, 2024, 2A16, 2A02 and so on. Applications: partially used in aerospace, infrequently used in conventional in...
