Aluminum mirror finish coil for Grille light

Aluminum mirror finish coil for Grille light is of 1050, 1060, 1070, 1085 or 1095 alloy, all of which fall on 1000 series featured by low hardness. This is because the Grille light reflective panels must be light, bright and corrosion resistant, but requires little about hardness, since hardness is not the key factor influencing the service life of grid lights. Further more, the hardness of these alloys can be adjusted by making the aluminum mirror coil into different tempers representing varied hardness levels. Tempers from O to H18 are available for those alloys, including H18, O, H14, H24, H16, H26 etc. The h18 state is so hard that such a coil can not go through a bend test, for it breaks under the bending pressure.

The thickness of the grille lighting aluminum coil is from 0.12mm to 2.0mm. The coil can be wide coil or narrow strip type, with a width of 20mm to 1300mm. Cutting and slitting services are available, too. The reflectivity of aluminum mirror finish coil for Grille light is usually 80% to 86%, with the diffuse reflectivity less than 12%. The anodized and super reflective aluminum mirror coil reaches a reflectivity of 96%. Common mirror coils are cast continuously until they displays a mirroring surface, while super reflective ones must be made of hot rolled aluminum coil rolls.

The aluminum mirror finish coil is used for grid lighting because of its features followed. First, it’s excellent in heat dissipation. The level of heat dissipation decides the the service life of lights to a large degree. Second, it’s light, much lighter than any other possible material. Grid lights are usually fixed on the ceiling or walls, and smaller weight means higher safety. Third, it’s corrosion resistant. Anodized mirror finish aluminum reflective panels for led lights last 10 years in ordinary working conditions. Last, there’s no need to further color the surface, for silver is a natural and fashionable color anyway.
