The distinction between aluminum plate and aluminum alloy plate

Aluminum plate is pure aluminum plate, which is 1 series, for example, 1060 belongs to 1 series. Alloy aluminum plate can be roughly divided into 7 series, which are 2-8 series. For example, 2A21 belongs to series 2, 3003 belongs to series 3, 5052 belongs to series 5, and so on.

The 1000 series is pure aluminum plate, such as 1060. reach more than 99%.

The 2000 series is an aluminum sheet with copper as the main alloying element. The copper content can reach 2%-5%, or more, depending on the application. The hardness of the 2000 series is relative to other grades In aerospace, the 2000 series aluminum alloy plate is also known as aviation aluminum. Due to the fact that the civilian side is not extensive, there are currently few factories producing 2000 series alloy aluminum sheets. Similarly, the price of aluminum sheets in the 2000 series is relatively high. At present, the 5052 series has basically replaced the 2000 series with the civilian side.

The 3000 series is an aluminum plate with manganese as the main alloying element. The content of manganese is between 2-5%. Representative varieties of the 3000 series include 3003 aluminium sheet and 3A21 aluminium sheet. The main reason is that the 3000 series aluminum plate has certain anti-rust performance, and is widely used in humid environments such as air conditioners and refrigerators. The price is very advantageous compared with other alloy plates.
　　

The 4000 series is an aluminum plate with manganese as the main alloying element. At present, it is not widely used.
　　

The 5000 series is a representative series of alloy aluminum plates. There are mainly 5052, 5083 and other grades. It is the most commonly used aluminum alloy plate in China and the world.　

The 6000 series is a combination of 4000 and 5000, the main alloying elements include silicon and magnesium, and the representative grade is 6061-T6 aluminum plate. It belongs to solid hot melt treated aluminum plate.
　　

The 7000 series is 7075 as the main representative grade of aluminum plate. Mainly in terms of hardness, the performance is very similar to that of the 2000 series. Not commonly used at this time.　　　

The 8000 series is an aluminum plate with 8011 as the main representative and the main function of the bottle cap, which is not commonly used.
