Aluminium 1060 is a commercially pure aluminum alloy that contains at least 99.6% aluminum, along with trace amounts of iron and silicon. This non-heat-treatable alloy is highly valued for its outstanding corrosion resistance, formability, and conductivity. Typically, its tensile strength falls between 70–130 MPa, yield strength is around 30–85 MPa, and elongation ranges from 25–35%, depending on the temper (like O, H12, H14). While it may not be suitable for high-stress applications, Aluminium 1060 forgings are perfect for components where excellent thermal or electrical performance and easy fabrication are key.

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 are extensively utilized in industries where electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, and workability are paramount. In the electrical field, they’re commonly found in bus bars, conductors, and transformer windings. The HVAC sector uses them in heat exchanger fins, ducting, and evaporator components. In food and chemical processing, 1060 is favored for tanks, trays, and pipelines due to its non-toxic and non-reactive properties. This alloy also has applications in roofing, signage, reflectors, and decorative features. Its lightweight nature and ease of shaping make it an excellent choice for various industrial and architectural uses.
