Key Features of 1050 Aluminum Plate
High Corrosion Resistance
1050 aluminum plate contains ≥99.5% aluminum, providing excellent resistance to atmospheric corrosion, acids, and alkalis, which is crucial in food processing and chemical environments.
Excellent Formability
Available in H14 or H24 temper, 1050 aluminum plate is easily bent, rolled, or deep-drawn without cracking, making it suitable for containers, tanks, trays, and packaging sheets.
Non-Toxic and Food-Safe
Being commercially pure, 1050 aluminum is non-toxic, odorless, and safe for food contact, complying with international food safety regulations.
Lightweight and Cost-Effective
Its low density (~2.71 g/cm³) reduces overall weight in storage and transport applications, while remaining affordable compared to high-strength alloys.
Good Thermal & Electrical Conductivity
1050 aluminum plate efficiently conducts heat, making it ideal for baking trays, foil containers, and heat-exchange equipment in the food and chemical industry.
Applications in Food Packaging
Foil and Sheet Trays: Ideal for ready-to-eat meals, bakery products, and disposable trays.
Food Storage Containers: Resists corrosion from acidic or salty foods.
Beverage and Dairy Equipment: Tanks, pipes, and vessels made from 1050 aluminum ensure hygienic processing.
Vacuum and Laminated Packaging: 1050 aluminum's flexibility allows efficient sealing and shaping for various food products.
Applications in Chemical Equipment
Chemical Storage Tanks: Resists corrosion from mild acids and alkalis, ensuring long service life.
Processing Vessels and Pipes: Easy to fabricate and weld, suitable for industrial chemical applications.
Laboratory Equipment: Non-reactive properties make it safe for chemical handling.
Protective Panels & Covers: Lightweight, durable, and resistant to corrosive atmospheres.
