Since no other alloying elements are added, the production process is relatively simple, and the price is more advantageous compared with other alloy series aluminum circles. This series of products has excellent plasticity, electrical conductivity, surface finish and deep drawing & spinning performance, and can be adapted to various processing technologies such as anodizing, coating, deep drawing and spinning. With complete specifications and flexible customization, it can meet the processing and use needs of kitchenware, lighting, construction, industrial accessories and other fields, and is a basic aluminum component with both practicality and economy in industrial production.
II. Product Definition and Model Naming Rules
2.1 Product Definition
1000 series aluminum circle is pure aluminum circle, whose core feature is high aluminum content (no less than 99%) and no other deliberately added alloying elements, with pure material and stable performance. Its prominent advantages are low processing difficulty, good surface quality and high cost-effectiveness. It can not only meet the needs of conventional industrial processing, but also adapt to high-demand surface treatment and forming processes, making it the most used and widely applied pure aluminum circle category in the current market.
2.2 Model Naming Rules and Distinction
The core of the model naming of 1000 series aluminum circles is the last two digits, which directly determine the minimum aluminum content standard of this model of pure aluminum circles. Specifically, it follows the international naming principle and China’s aluminum alloy technical standard (GB/T3880-2006). Examples are as follows:
-
1050 series: The last two digits are 50. According to the standard, the aluminum content must be no less than 99.5%, which complies with China’s aluminum alloy technical standard and is one of the most widely used models in the market;
-
1060 series: The last two digits are 60. The aluminum content must be no less than 99.6%, with slightly higher material purity and more stable performance than 1050 series;
-
Other models (1070, 1100, 1200, etc.): All follow this rule. The last two digits correspond to the minimum aluminum content ratio. Different models have slightly different aluminum contents and subtle performance, adapting to different scenario needs.
Common mainstream models: 1050, 1060, 1070, 1100, AA1100, 1200 series, which can be flexibly selected according to customers’ specific use needs.
