0.5mm 1050 Grade Thin Aluminium Sheet Plate – 2000 x 1000mm Panel

Thin Aluminium Sheet

We offer a wide selection of thin aluminium sheet plate online from trusted mills in the UK. Providing high-quality, low-priced aluminium sheet products to UK businesses and the general public, Speciality Metals is a leading aluminium metals supplier.

The thin aluminium sheet, measuring 2000mm x 1000mm, is a notably lightweight and flexible option, ideal for applications requiring delicate precision. Made from 1050 grade aluminium, this 2m x 1m panel’s standout feature is its 0.5mm thickness, roughly equivalent to 1/64″. This ultra-thin design, paired with its mere 2.71kg weight, makes it exceptionally easy to handle and adapt to a variety of tasks.

An added advantage of this thin aluminium sheet is the protective coating on one side, which safeguards against potential scratches or external damages. This protective layer ensures that the sheet’s fine dimensions do not compromise its durability, allowing users to benefit from both its thinness and its resilience.

Its popularity stems from its versatility. Being so thin, it can be used in intricate designs, delicate crafting projects, and other applications where thicker sheets might not be as suitable. This can include decorative elements, precision mechanical components, or any project that demands a blend of strength and finesse.

What are the Typical Applications of 0.5mm Thin Aluminium Sheet 1050 grade?

The 0.5mm thin aluminium sheet of 1050 grade finds diverse applications across various industries due to its exceptional properties. Its lightweight nature, excellent corrosion resistance and high electrical conductivity make it ideal for applications in electrical components, such as capacitors, busbars and transformers. Additionally, it is commonly used in chemical equipment due to its resistance to chemical corrosion. The sheet’s formability and ease of fabrication make it suitable for crafting nameplates, signage and various decorative items. Its versatility and durability also extend its use to industries requiring lightweight yet robust materials, including aerospace and automotive components.

What is the Maximum Temperature that 1050 Grade Aluminium can Withstand?

The 1050 grade aluminium has a relatively low melting point compared to other alloys, with a maximum temperature it can withstand of approximately 650°C (1202°F). This means that when exposed to temperatures beyond this threshold, the aluminium may start to soften, lose its structural integrity and eventually melt. Therefore, it is essential to consider the operating environment and potential heat exposure when using 1050 grade aluminium in various applications. For high-temperature applications, it may be more appropriate to consider other aluminium alloys or thicknesses that offer higher melting points and improved heat resistance.

Is the Surface of 1050 Grade Aluminium Sheet Suitable for Painting or Printing?

Yes, the surface of 1050 grade aluminium sheet is well-suited for painting and printing. Due to its excellent surface characteristics and high formability, it allows for easy application of paint, coatings or printing inks. Whether it’s for decorative purposes, branding or labeling, the smooth and clean surface of 1050 grade aluminium provides an ideal canvas for various printing techniques, including screen printing and digital printing. Additionally, the aluminium’s ability to hold paint and coatings ensures good adhesion, resulting in durable and visually appealing finishes.
