What Is a 1050 Aluminum Sheet Plate?
1050 aluminum sheet plate is an industrially pure aluminum material containing more than 99.5% aluminum, belonging to the 1000 series aluminum alloys. Due to its extremely high aluminum content, 1050 aluminum plate features excellent plasticity, outstanding corrosion resistance, and superior electrical and thermal conductivity, although its mechanical strength is relatively low.
This alloy is widely used in applications where formability, conductivity, and surface quality are more important than strength.
Key Features of 1050 Aluminum Sheet Plate
Aluminum content ≥ 99.5%
Excellent corrosion resistance
High ductility and easy forming
Very good electrical and thermal conductivity
Low mechanical strength
Can be strengthened by cold working, not by heat treatment
Highly reflective surface finish
1050 Aluminum Sheet vs Plate – Thickness Definition
In practice, both "sheet" and "plate" describe flat aluminum products, but thickness is the key difference:
| Product Type | Thickness Range |
|---|---|
| 1050 Aluminum Sheet | 0.2 mm – 6 mm (¼") |
| 1050 Aluminum Plate | 6 mm – 500 mm |
1050 Aluminum Alloy Equivalent Grades and Designations
1050 aluminum alloy (also known as 1050A) corresponds to the following standards (not always direct equivalents):
EN AW-1050A
AA 1050
AL 1050
UNS A91050
S1B

Common Tempers of 1050 Aluminum Sheet Plate
The most widely used tempers include:
- O / H111 – Soft, maximum formability
- H14 – Half-hard, widely used for bending and folding
- H18 / H19 – Full hard, higher strength, low elongation
- H22 / H24 – Work-hardened and partially annealed
When welding 1050 aluminum to itself or similar alloys, 1100 aluminum filler wire is recommended.
