We are proud to introduce Tariku Metals, a trusted manufacturer and supplier based in the heart of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Our expertise lies in producing superior Aluminium 1060 Forgings, crafted with precision to meet the exacting standards of our diverse clientele. We understand that the backbone of great industries is reliable materials, which is why we are committed to delivering forgings that combine exceptional purity with consistent, dependable performance for a wide range of critical applications.
Aluminium 1060 is notable for its high purity, consisting of a minimum of 99.6% aluminium. This simple composition gives it a excellent resistance to corrosion and very high thermal and electrical conductivity. Mechanically, it is a commercially pure grade, offering good ductility and formability, though it is one of the softer aluminium alloys. It is not known for high strength, but rather for its reliable workability and stability, making it a practical choice where extreme strength is not the primary requirement.

Aluminum 1060 is not ideal for high-temperature forging applications due to its low strength and relatively low melting point. It is more suited for applications requiring excellent corrosion resistance and formability.
Aluminum 1060 offers high corrosion resistance, excellent workability, good weldability, and enhanced electrical conductivity, making it ideal for custom forgings in industries requiring lightweight, durable, and malleable components.
The forging process for Aluminium 1060 typically takes several hours, depending on the complexity of the part, with heating, shaping, and cooling stages. Each stage varies based on specifications.
The unique properties of Aluminium 1060 Forgings make them incredibly versatile. They are a top choice for components in the chemical and food processing industries due to their superb corrosion resistance. You will also find them extensively used in electrical busbars and heat exchangers, where excellent conductivity is essential. Furthermore, their ability to be easily worked makes them ideal for intricate architectural details, decorative trim, and general fabrication projects where forming and welding are key parts of the manufacturing process.
