1060 Aluminum Coils: Chemical Composition, Mechanical Properties, Applications & Why Choose Zhongfu Aluminum
Dec 19, 2025



1060 aluminum coils are a popular choice in global markets due to their high purity, excellent processability, and versatile performance. As a typical pure aluminum product (with aluminum content 99.6%), they are widely used in electronics, packaging, construction, and automotive industries. Below is a detailed overview of their chemical composition, mechanical properties, key application fields, and the core advantages of choosing Jinan Zhongfu Aluminum as your trusted supplier.

1. Chemical Composition of 1060 Aluminum Coils

    1060 aluminum coils are dominated by high-purity aluminum (Al), with trace amounts of impurity elements that strictly comply with international standards (ASTM, JIS, GB, EN). The precise chemical composition is as follows:


Aluminum (Al)

99.6% (core component )

Iron (Fe)

0.35%

Silicon (Si)

0.25%

Copper (Cu)

0.05%

Magnesium (Mg)

0.03%

Manganese (Mn)

0.03%

Zinc (Zn)

0.05%

Titanium (Ti)

0.03%

Other metallic elements

Single element 0.03%, total 0.15%

    

    This strict composition control ensures the stability of 1060 aluminum coilsperformance, making them suitable for scenarios requiring high material purity, such as electronic components and food packaging.

2. Mechanical Properties of 1060 Aluminum Coils

    The mechanical properties of 1060 aluminum coils vary by processing temper, adapting to different application requirements for strength and ductility. Below are the key performance indicators for common tempers:


Temper O (Annealed State)

Tensile strength

60-95 MPa

Yield strength

35 MPa

Elongation

30%

Brinell hardness (HB)

25-35

Work-Hardened Tempers (H12, H14, H16, H18)

Tensile strength

100-136 MPa (increases with work hardening degree)

Yield strength

90-130MPa

Elongation

1% (lower than Temper O but retains basic ductility)

Brinell hardness (HB)

35-75


3. Key Application Fields of 1060 Aluminum Coils

    Leveraging advantages like high purity, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and non-toxicity, 1060 aluminum coils are widely used across multiple industries:

Electronic & Electrical Industry

    As a preferred material for high-conductivity components, 1060 aluminum coils are used to manufacture capacitor casings, wire terminals, transformer heat sinks, and battery pouch aluminum-plastic film substrates. Their high purity ensures stable electrical performance and reliability in electronic devices.

Packaging Industry

    Non-toxic and corrosion-resistant, 1060 aluminum coils are commonly processed into food packaging aluminum foil. They effectively extend food shelf life by blocking moisture, oxygen, and pollutants, complying with global food safety standards (FDA, GB 4806).

Architectural Decoration

    Ideal for indoor ceiling panels, wall decorative panels, signs, and ornaments, 1060 aluminum coils can be anodized (clear or colored) or powder-coated to achieve aesthetic effects. Their lightweight and easy installation features reduce construction costs.

Chemical Equipment

    In weak acid and alkali environments, 1060 aluminum coils maintain excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for corrosion-resistant container liners, pipeline gaskets, and chemical reaction vessel components.

Heat Exchanger Manufacturing

    With superior thermal conductivity, 1060 aluminum coils are used to produce heat exchanger fins, improving heat exchange efficiency in air conditioners, refrigerators, and industrial heat exchangers.

Automotive Industry

    Applied in automotive interior parts (dashboard decorative strips, interior panels), 1060 aluminum coils contribute to vehicle lightweighting, reducing fuel consumption while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the interior.

Thermal Insulation Materials

    Combined with insulation core materials, 1060 aluminum coils are used in pipeline insulation and building envelope insulation. They provide both protection and thermal insulation, widely used in construction and industrial thermal insulation projects.

    In summary, 1060 aluminum coils are the top choice for applications requiring good conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and processability without high strength demands.
