1050 alloy aluminum coil refers to a specific grade of aluminum alloy coil, also known as 1050 aluminum coil. 1050 aluminum rolls are commercial pure aluminum extrusions in the 1000 series. According to the international alloy nomenclature, the last two digits of the 1050 aluminum roll “50” means that the aluminum content must be above 99.50%. Only when this condition is met can the product be qualified. At the same time, the 1050 aluminum coil is also a non-heat-treated aluminum alloy with low strength, so the 1050 aluminum coil cannot be strengthened by heat treatment.
1050 alloy has a high aluminum content, a soft texture, and low mechanical strength. It is easy to withstand various pressure processing, stretching, and bending. It can fully meet conventional processing requirements (stamping, stretching) with good elongation and tensile strength. Therefore, 1050 alloy has excellent flexibility and plasticity. The 1050 aluminum coil is made by extrusion or rolling.
Secondly, the density of the 1050 aluminum coil is low, the surface has a silver-white luster, and its density decreases with increased purity or temperature. The chemical composition and mechanical properties of the 1050 aluminum coil are similar to those of the 1060 aluminum coil, with advantages such as corrosion resistance, high plasticity, and excellent reflectivity. It is especially suitable for corrosion resistance, and formability requirements are high, but the strength requirements are not high. Therefore, 1050 aluminum coils are widely used in chemical, electrical, packaging, decoration, and other industries. Therefore, in lighting lamps, lampshades, lamp holders, reflectors, decorations, chemical containers, and other products, 1050 aluminum coil is the ideal base material. In addition, it is also used in the interior design of supporting structures such as buildings and exterior walls of inner rooms.

Differences between DC Casting and CC Casting
The thickness of 0.7 mm refers to the thickness of aluminum coils, commonly used in various industries for roofing, cladding, and fabrication applications. So, comparing the quality of aluminum coils with a 0.7 mm thickness through some details on DC and CC Casting could help us get a clear and reasonable result.
DC (Direct Chill) Casting:
- The direct chill casting process produces a magnificent and uniform aluminum grain structure.
- Compared to other casting methods, this fine-grain structure gives aluminum strength, formability, and corrosion resistance.
- Direct chill-casting aluminum coils are often used in applications that require deep drawing or complex forming, such as automotive body panels, heat exchangers, and food/beverage cans.
- The 0.7 mm thickness is on the thinner end for DC casting aluminum. However, this gauge is still suitable for many formed and fabricated components.
CC casting (Continuous Casting):
- Continuous Casting is a more economical process than DC casting.
- CC-casting aluminum billets, blooms, or slabs have a slightly larger grain structure than DC-casting. However, it is still suitable for a wide range of applications.
- CC-casting aluminum coils with a thickness of 0.7 mm are commonly used for general sheet metal fabrication, roofing, siding, and other building/construction applications.
- The 0.7 mm thickness provides a good balance of formability, strength, and lightweight properties for these types of uses.
In summary, DC-casting aluminum coils have superior mechanical properties and surface quality compared to CC-casting but at a slightly higher cost. Even so, neither DC nor CC-casting aluminum coils with a thickness of 0.7 mm can exhibit good flatness, surface quality, and dimensional tolerance and can be used in different applications depending on the project’s specific requirements. The choice between the two kinds of production technology depends on the end product’s specific performance requirements, economic considerations for the specific application, and customer requirements. DC casting is preferred when superior formability and strength are needed. In contrast, CC casting is more economical for less demanding applications.
Advanced Color-Coated Process
Polyester-coated pre-coating Technology(PE Coating)
The polyester coating is a kind of anti-UV UV polyester resin coating; its main component uses polymers containing ester bonds in the main chain as monomers, adding alkyd resin and an ultraviolet absorber. After baking polyester coating on the surface of aluminum (aluminum sheet, aluminum roll) many times, it forms a solid film with protection and decoration. The polyester coating protects color-coated aluminum products (aluminum sheets, aluminum rolls) from exposure to the atmosphere due to temperature differences, freeze-thaw cycles, corrosive gases and microorganisms, ultraviolet radiation, wind, rain, frost, and snow.
In addition, the polyester coating can give color-coated aluminum substrate products rich color. According to gloss, the polyester coating can be divided into matte and highlight series. Therefore, the color-coated aluminum coil not only has good gloss and smoothness but also superior texture and feel and can also increase the sense of layer and three-dimensionality. It is especially suitable for interior decoration and advertising boards.
polyvinylidene difluoride coating technology(PVDF Coating)
Fluorocarbon coating is PVDF resin. It mainly refers to vinylidene fluoride homopolymer or vinylidene fluoride and other small amounts of fluorinated vinyl monomer copolymer coatings. The fluoric acid-base material with a fluorine/carbonization bond has a stable and firm chemical structure, which makes the physical properties of fluorocarbon coatings different from those of general coatings.
Fluorocarbon coatings can be divided into traditional fluorocarbon coatings and nano-fluorocarbon coatings according to the film formation structure of the surface. In 1965, the Pennwalt Chemical Company of the United States, for the first time, used fluorocarbon paint for the coating of indoor and outdoor aluminum in high-grade buildings, a wide range of color selectivity, solemn appearance, and durability for many magnificent curtain wall buildings around the world added luster. In addition to the wear and impact resistance in terms of mechanical properties, it also shows excellent and long-term fading resistance and UV resistance in harsh climates and humid environments. After high-temperature grilling, the molecular structure of the coating is tight, and the machine has superior weather resistance. The coating manufacturer’s guarantee of the service life of the coating began to be 10 years, 15 years to guarantee more than 20 years.
American research institutions have tested and compared fluorocarbon, super, and general coatings. The samples of the coatings were exposed to hot sunlight in Florida, the United States, and exposed to the harsh environment of humid salty air for 12 years, which proves that the stability and durability of fluorocarbon coatings are 30%-80% higher than those of the other two coatings. Fluorocarbon coatings ensure that they can be used in various harsh environments. It is especially suitable for indoor and outdoor decoration in public places, commercial chains, exhibition advertising, and other decorations and displays.

1050 aluminum coil Corrosion resistance
1050 aluminum coil chemical properties are very active. At 20℃, its standard potential is -1.69V, which makes it easy to form a firm and tight oxide film by the action of oxygen in the air, and the standard point is raised to -0.5V. So, aluminum is resistant to corrosion in the atmosphere. However, with the increase of impurities, the continuity of the oxide film is destroyed to form a micro battery, reducing its corrosion resistance.
The corrosion resistance of the 1050 aluminum coil in pure water mainly depends on the water temperature, water quality, and aluminum purity. When the water temperature is lower than 50℃, with the improvement of water quality and aluminum purity, the corrosion resistance of the 1050 aluminum coil is improved, and the corrosion appearance is mainly spot-like. If the water contains a small quantity of active ions (Cl-, Cu+, etc.), the corrosion resistance of aluminum is sharply reduced.

DC and CC Casting, two crucial methods in aluminum production, refer to different casting ways of producing aluminum billets, blooms, or slabs. Casting is a process of shaping ingots by pouring the liquid metal into a mold, followed by solidification. Casting is a metal treatment detail produced by pouring metal into a mold. In some cases, casting is the only method of shaping a metal or alloy.
DC stands for Direct Chill Casting. It is a vertical semi-continuous casting process for manufacturing cylindrical or rectangular ingot/billet for non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper alloys. The widely used casting process involves solidifying molten metal in a water-cooled mold, resulting in an aluminum ingot with a fine-grain structure. So, the direct chill casting aluminum billets, blooms, or slabs are suitable for deep drawing or complex forming. Therefore, extrusion, rolling, or forging technology can further process direct chill-casting aluminum ingot.
The DC casting process is the most common application for casting aluminum billets, and more than half of the world’s aluminum billets, blooms, or slabs are cast using direct chill casting. This widespread use underscores the process’s importance in the global aluminum production industry.
CC casting, or Continuous Casting, is a process that continuously solidifies molten metal into ‘semi-finished’ billets, blooms, or slabs. It’s a method that’s not only used for casting aluminum billets but also gaining popularity in the aluminum industry.
The lower inherent cost of continuous, standardized production and improved process and quality control through automation allows continuous casting technology to produce better-quality metal profiles at a lower price.
This process is most commonly used for casting steel (by tonnage). So do aluminum and copper. In the aluminum industry, CC-casting aluminum billets, blooms, or slabs are often used to produce general-purpose aluminum rolls.
Yes, specific industries tend to prefer DC-casting aluminum coils over CC-casting, especially for applications that require the enhanced mechanical properties and surface quality of DC-casting material. This preference is driven by the numerous benefits that DC-casting offers, such as:
Automotive Industry:
- The automotive sector is a significant consumer of DC-casting aluminum coils.
- The high strength, formability, and surface finish of DC casting are crucial for producing complex body panels, structural components, and heat exchangers.
- Automakers value the tight dimensional tolerances and consistent quality of DC-casting aluminum.
Aerospace and Defense:
- The superior mechanical properties of DC-casting aluminum are essential for aerospace and defense applications.
- Components like airframe structures, engine parts, and defense equipment demand the high strength-to-weight ratio of DC casting.
- The enhanced fatigue life and corrosion resistance are also meaningful in these industries.
Packaging:
- Beverage cans, food containers, and other tight-tolerance packaging applications often utilize DC-casting aluminum.
- Fine grain structure and smooth surface finish are critical for deep drawing these products.
- Consistent thickness and flatness ensure good sealing and performance.
Electronics:
- Electrical enclosures, heat sinks, and other electronic components may use DC-casting aluminum coils.
- The higher strength allows for thinner designs without compromising performance.
- Smooth surfaces are essential for aesthetic appeal and thermal management.
While more costly, the enhanced properties of DC-casting aluminum make it the preferred choice in industries with stringent performance requirements. However, improved performance and durability often offset this higher cost, making DC-casting a cost-effective solution for many applications. CC casting remains suitable for more general applications where the premium properties of DC casting are not as critical.
Factors Affecting the Weight of Aluminum Rolls
The weight of an aluminum coil depends on its material density, length, width, and thickness. The same specification of aluminum coil, different manufacturers may produce a certain difference in weight, which can be measured by a weight meter and other equipment. At the same time, the coating material and treatment process in the production process of the aluminum coil will also have a certain impact on the weight of the aluminum coil. Generally, the weight of the common aluminum coil is between 500 and 5000kg.
Aluminum coil weight calculation formula
Aluminum coil weight (kg) = aluminum coil length (m) × aluminum coil width (m) × aluminum coil thickness (m) × aluminum coil density (kg/m³)
Among them, the density of the aluminum coil is 2.7×103kg/m³.
For example, if the aluminum coil’s specifications are a width of 1 m, a thickness of 0.3 mm, and a length of 100 m, then the weight can be calculated according to the following formula: weight = 2.7 g/cm3 x 10,000cm x 100 cmx0.03 cm = 81,000 g = 81Kg.
Notes: When calculating the weight of the aluminum coil, it is necessary to pay attention to the unity of the unit, such as the length and width need to be converted into centimeters or meters.
Weight reference value corresponding to common specifications of aluminum coil
The following are common aluminum coil weight reference values for reference only:
- The weight of the 1.0mm thickness aluminum coil specification is about 2.7kg/m², and 1 ton of aluminum coil can be divided into about 370 sheets, with a width of 1.25 meters and a length of 10 meters each.
- The weight of the 0.6mm thickness aluminum coil specification is about 1.5kg/m², and 1 ton of aluminum coil can be divided into about 667 sheets, with a width of 1.25 meters and a length of 10 meters each.
The above data is for reference only. The specific weight must be calculated and measured according to the aluminum coil’s specifications.
When calculating the length of the aluminum coil, it is necessary to understand the specific specifications. Generally speaking, the specifications will indicate the aluminum coil’s width, thickness, and length. If only partial information about the weight and specifications of the aluminum coil is known, the length of the aluminum coil can be reversed.
For example, if the aluminum coil specification is 800mm wide, 0.5mm thick, 100kg in weight, and the density of aluminum is known to be 2.7g/cm³, then its length can be calculated as follows:
- Step1: Calculate the aluminum coil area
Area = 800mm x 0.5mm = 400mm² = 0.04m²
- Step2: Calculate the aluminum coil length
Length = 100kg / 2.7g/cm³ / 0.04m² = 925.93m
Therefore, the length of the above aluminum coil is 925.93m.
Notes: When calculating the length of the aluminum coil, please pay attention to the distinction between standard specifications and the correct application of the weight calculation formula.
