Aluminium 1060 is a high-purity aluminium alloy that contains at least 99.6% aluminium, with only trace amounts of silicon and iron. This unique composition grants it excellent corrosion resistance, high electrical and thermal conductivity, and remarkable reflectivity. While Aluminium 1060 forgings have low to moderate strength, they boast outstanding ductility and softness, making them perfect for forging and forming processes. The alloy is known for its excellent workability, good weldability, and smooth machinability, with tensile strength typically falling between 70 to 110 MPa, depending on how it’s processed and its temper.

Aluminum 1060 is not ideal for high-temperature forging applications due to its low strength and relatively low melting point. It is more suited for applications requiring excellent corrosion resistance and formability.
Aluminum 1060 offers high corrosion resistance, excellent workability, good weldability, and enhanced electrical conductivity, making it ideal for custom forgings in industries requiring lightweight, durable, and malleable components.
The forging process for Aluminium 1060 typically takes several hours, depending on the complexity of the part, with heating, shaping, and cooling stages. Each stage varies based on specifications.
Aluminium 1060 Forgings find their place in various industries that demand high conductivity, corrosion resistance, and ease of fabrication. Common applications include electrical components, transformers, bus bars, heat sinks, and equipment for chemical processing. They are also frequently used in food-processing machinery, lighting fixtures, architectural panels, and decorative elements. Thanks to their excellent formability, Aluminium 1060 forgings are ideal for creating complex shapes and non-load-bearing parts. The alloy’s purity and reliability make it a great fit for both industrial and commercial settings.
