What is 1060 aluminum sheet
1060 aluminum is a pure aluminum that belongs to the 1000 series. 1060 is the Aluminum Association’s (AA) designation for this material. In the European standard it will be designated EN AW-1060. A91060 is the UNS number. Additionally, the EN chemical name is Al99, 6.
1060 aluminum has high plasticity, corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, but low strength, cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, and has poor machinability; it can be gas welded, hydrogen atomic welded and contact welded, but not easy to braze; it can easily withstand various pressures Processing and stretching and bending.

1060 aluminum sheet common temper
The common temper of 1060 aluminum plate include 0, H112, H12, H14, H16, H18, H22, H24, H26, H28, etc. The mechanical properties of different states are different.
- 1060-H12 Aluminum sheet, strength is approximately one-quarter between annealed (O) and fully hard (H18)
- 1060-H14 Aluminum sheet, the strength is approximately between annealed (O) and full hard (H18)
- 1060-H16 Aluminum sheet, metal strain hardened to approximately 3/4 of the strength between annealed (O) and fully hard (H18)
- 1060-H18 Aluminum sheet, the strongest temper produced by strain hardening alone
- 1060-H22 Aluminum sheet, the metal is strain hardened and has about one-quarter the strength between annealed (O) and fully hard (H18).
- 1060-H24 Aluminum sheet, the strength is approximately between annealed (O) and full hard (H28)
- 1060-H26 Aluminum sheet, the metal is strain hardened to approximately 3/4 of the strength between annealed (O) and fully hard (H28).
- 1060-H28 Aluminum sheet, the strongest temper produced by the action of strain hardening followed by partial annealing. It is closely related to H18
- 1060-O Aluminum sheet, fully annealed, it has the highest ductility
