Aluminium 1060 may be welded by standard commercial methods. If filler rod is required it should be of AL 1060. A precaution should be noted for the use of resistance welding as by this method some trial and error experimentation may be required to obtain good results.

Principal Design Features | This is a relatively low strength, essentially pure aluminum, alloy. It is noted for excellent welding characteristics and formability along with good corrosion resistance. It cannot be hardened by heat treatment. |
---|---|
Aluminium 1060 Applications | Commonly used in the manufacture of chemical equipment and railroad tank cars. |
Aluminium 1060 Machinability | The machinability of AL 1060 is fair to poor, especially in the soft temper conditions. In the harder (cold worked) tempers such as H16 and H18 the machining characteristics are improved. Either carbide or high-speed steel tooling may be used and use of lubricants is recommended, although some cutting may be done dry. |
Aluminium 1060 Forming | This alloy has excellent forming capability by cold or hot working with commercial techniques. |
Aluminium 1060 Welding | AL 1060 may be welded by standard commercial methods. If filler rod is required it should be of AL 1060. A precaution should be noted for the use of resistance welding as by this method some trial and error experimentation may be required to obtain good results. |
Aluminium 1060 Heat Treatment | This alloy does not harden by heat treatment. It may be annealed after cold working. See "Annealing". |
Aluminium 1060 Forging | This alloy may be forged in the temperature range of 950 to 700 F. |
Aluminium 1060 Hot Working | Hot working, if required, may be done in the range of 900 to 500 F. |
Aluminium 1060 Cold Working | The cold working characteristics of AL 1060 are excellent. It can readily be cold worked by all conventional methods. |
Aluminium 1060 Annealing | Annealing may be done at 650 F followed by air cooling. |
Aluminium 1060 Aging | Not applicable to this alloy. |
Aluminium 1060 Tempering | Not applicable. |
Aluminium 1060 Hardening | The alloy hardens only from cold working. Tempers H12, H14, H16, H18 are determined by the amount of cold working imparted into the alloy. |
Aluminium 1060 Other Physical Props | Electrical conductivity 55% of copper. |
Aluminium 1060 Other Mechanical | Shear strength of annealed (O temper) is 7 ksi. For H14 temper it is 9 ksi and for H18 temper 11 ksi. |
