What Is The Cheapest Aluminum Sheet

1xxx aluminum alloy

It is an aluminum alloy that cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, and the strength can only be improved by cold work hardening. The aluminum content of 1xxx series aluminum alloy is not less than 99.0%, so it can be divided into high-purity aluminum (aluminum content not less than 99.85%) and industrial pure aluminum (aluminum content between 99.0% and 99.85%) according to different purity. It belongs to the cheapest aluminum sheet.

The commonly used 1xxx aluminum alloys are 1050, 1060, 1070, 1100, 1350, 1035, 1A99, 1A95, etc. This series of aluminum alloys has low density, low strength, good electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, large latent heat of fusion, large light reflection coefficient, small thermal neutron absorption cross-sectional area, and beautiful appearance.

They are mainly used in scientific research, chemical industry, electrical industry, wires and cables, capacitors (1060-1070), living utensils (1050 and 1035), etc. Its typical grades are 1050 and 1060.

2xxx Al-Cu alloy

It is an aluminum alloy that can be strengthened by heat treatment. The 2xxx aluminum alloy is developed on the basis of Al-Cu alloy and mainly includes Al-Cu-Mg alloy, Al-Cu-Mg-Fe-Ni alloy, Al-Cu-Mn and Al-Cu -Mg-Si etc. 2xxx aluminum alloy grades are mainly 2A01, 2A02, 2A04, 2A06, 2B06, 2A12, 2017, 2024, etc.

It is characterized by high strength, excellent heat resistance and processability, and is usually called hard aluminum alloy. It is mainly used to manufacture aircraft skins, stressed structural parts (2A12), turbojet engine axial blades and other high-temperature working parts and structural plates.

3xxx Al-Mn alloy

It is an aluminum alloy that cannot be strengthened by heat treatment and is mainly composed of Al-Mn alloy. The common grades are A21, 3003, 3004, 3104, etc. This series of aluminum alloys is characterized by good formability, especially good tensile properties, high corrosion resistance and welding performance.

It is mainly used in tanks, pressure tanks, storage devices, heat exchangers, chemical equipment, aircraft fuel tanks, cryogenic devices, oil pipelines, kitchen equipment, welding wires, building materials, etc.

4xxx Al-Si alloy

It is an aluminum alloy that cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. It is mainly composed of Al-Si alloy. This series of alloys has a high silicon content. It has a low melting point, good melt fluidity, easy feeding, and does not easily make the product brittle. It is mainly used for filling materials and brazing materials.

5xxx Al-Mg alloy

It is an aluminum alloy that cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. It can achieve very high strength by work hardening without heat treatment, has good weldability, and increases fatigue strength at low temperatures. It is mainly composed of Al-Mg alloy. The commonly used alloys are 5A06, 5052, 5056, 5083, 5182, etc.

6xxx Al-Mg-Si alloy

It is an aluminum alloy that can be strengthened by heat treatment and is mainly composed of magnesium and silicon or magnesium, silicon and copper as the main alloy elements. Currently, more than 70% of aluminum extrusion processing materials in the world are produced with 6XXX series alloy.

6061, 6063, 6082, 6005, etc. and their variants have accounted for more than 80% of the 6xxx aluminum alloys They high corrosion resistance, no tendency of stress corrosion cracking, good welding performance, unchanged corrosion performance in the welding zone, good formability and process performance.
