Aluminum coil price per kg and per ton

Many people are searching for ‘aluminum coil price per kg’, ‘price of aluminum coil’, ‘aluminum coils price per ton’ and even ‘aluminum coil prices per pound’. However, there is no fixed price for aluminum coils, as the daily price of non-ferrous metals is floating. Here we have a calculation formula for your reference: Length (conversion calculation unit is meter) * Width (conversion calculation unit is meter) * Thickness (calculation unit thickness is millimeter) * 2.71 (color aluminum coil specific gravity) x unit price (unit price in kilograms) = price.

 

The factors influencing aluminum coil price include alloy, quality, place of origin and process level.

Alloys of aluminum coil cover 1050, 1060, 1070, 1100, 3003, 3004, 5005, 5052, 5083, 6061etc. For example, if you search 1060 aluminum coil price, it would be more targeted and specific. The quality of aluminum coils has a lot to do with raw materials. Both superior and poor materials are used in aluminum manufacturing industry, and it’s difficult to judge this purely by appearance of the coils. The quality can only be guaranteed if the alloy is made with a qualified formula, otherwise the quality will not be improved if it is processed in the future. In order to reduce costs, some manufacturers reduce the amount of magnesium to a lesser allowable level. Some even make the content of magnesium lower than the less allowed. As a result, the mechanical strength of aluminum profiles is very low, which can be low enough to bend easily with two hands and one bend, commonly known as soft as noodles. This is why price of aluminum coil can be hundreds of dollars cheaper. Professional aluminum manufacturers have internal standards when formulating alloy components, that is, within the range of various element contents, each factory has its own smaller range of variation, and the ratio among aluminum, magnesium and silicon is very strict. Each factory has its own confidential data.

 

 The aluminum coils price per ton will also vary depending on the region, which affects delivery cost. Of course, if you are importing, you need only to pay attention to shipment cost. The adjustment of import and export tariffs on aluminum and changes in exchange rates will affect aluminum prices, too. In addition, process level affects aluminum coil price per kg. Some manufacturers use more advanced production methods, so the quality is better, and the later use effect is more stable and durable. Some manufacturers still use the backward method. Although the early use effect is the same, but in the later period, the failure and trouble will keep appearing. Therefore, the production process is also a factor affecting the price.
