Aluminum sheet 1050 h14 price

Aluminum sheet 1050 h14 price is between $2000 and $2300/mt. 1050 aluminium is a pure industrial aluminum alloy falling on 1000 series. It boasts a natural corrosion resistance even without magnesium or manganese. Pure aluminum is easy to form a dense and strong AL2O3 protective film. This protective film can only be destroyed under the intense action of halogen ions or alkali ions. Therefore, a piece of pure aluminum sheet has good atmospheric resistance (including industrial atmosphere and Marine atmosphere) corrosion and water corrosion ability. Mill finish 1050 aluminium sheets can can resist the corrosion of most acids and organics. They can be even more corrosion resistant with some improving methods. The adoption of corrosion inhibitors helps to resist weak alkali corrosion, and the use of protective measures (like anodizing or coating), can enhance overall corrosion resistance of the sheets, but the price would be higher.

The price of aluminum sheets are sometimes related to the temper of a sheet. Take aluminum sheet 1050 h14 price for example. The temper here is ordinary, so it has little influence to the final price. H in H14 indicates the state of work hardening, and some do not use H but T indicates the state of heat treatment. 14 indicates the processing technology to control the hardness and other physical properties. In addition to 24, there are 12, 14, 16, 18, 22, 26, 34 , 36 and so on, usually the end of 4 is semi-hard. H14 means that the 1050 aluminum sheet is work hardened to 50% hardness. Pure aluminum (1000 series) and anti-rust aluminum (3000, 5000 series) can only be subjected to annealing heat treatment, and hard aluminum, forged aluminum and anti-rust aluminum use quenching aging as the final heat treatment method. And the temper of T would be much more costly.

In regard of tempers, the prices of 1050 h14 and 1050 h24 aluminum sheets are more or less the same, but the specific price of an aluminium sheet depends on application, thickness, width, length and surface treatment of the sheet. The applications of an aluminum plate or sheet corresponds with its specification scopes. For example, if you use the 1050 h14 aluminum sheet to make cookware, then the thickness and width fall on 0.6mm to 3mm, and 100mm to 1200mm. As for length, you can either ask for rolls or customized length. Some clients might require beyond these scopes, but that’s a rare case. Therefore, if you are not sure about the specifications of the sheet you are purchasing, just tell your supplier the application and ask for the most cost efficient specification. Last but not least, surface treatment influences the price of 1050 h14 aluminium sheets a lot. If you need anodized sheets, the quotation would be much higher than mill finish sheets.
