Finished rolled aluminum coil 1060 H18 for PS printing

The substrate of printed PS aluminum plate is generally 1 series 1060-H18 aluminum coil alloy. In addition to being used to make PS plates for printing, 1060 aluminum coil is also widely used in offset printing plates such as positive PS plates, thermal CTP plates, photosensitive CTP plates, and UV-CTP plates.

MC Aluminum supplies hot-rolled 1060 aluminum coil, which has the advantages of high elongation, high tensile strength, excellent conductivity, and high formability, which can fully meet the conventional processing (stamping, stretching) requirements.

Quality requirements of aluminum coil

In general, the substrate of aluminum coil should have good visible quality and uniform quality, and should not have stains, dents, scratches, wrinkles, edge oxidation, non-metallic indentations and adhesions. Visible rolling or rolling lines and other defects that affect printing are not allowed. Under the premise of ensuring product quality, the surface oil content should be minimized.
