Hemi Metals is a top-notch manufacturer and supplier located in Hamilton, New Zealand, specializing in high-quality Aluminium 1050 Forgings tailored for industrial and engineering needs. With a keen emphasis on precision, durability, and customization, the company provides components that adhere to both local and international standards. Aluminium 1050 is celebrated for its remarkable purity, resistance to corrosion, and ease of workability, making it perfect for crafting complex and lightweight forged parts. Hemi Metals caters to a variety of sectors, including automotive, electrical, marine, and construction, by offering bespoke forging solutions that ensure reliability, strength, and long-lasting performance even in tough conditions.
Aluminium 1050 Forgings are composed of at least 99.5% aluminum, with minor amounts of iron, silicon, copper, zinc, and manganese. This high-purity aluminum grade boasts excellent corrosion resistance along with impressive electrical and thermal conductivity. It showcases remarkable ductility and can be easily forged due to its softer nature. Typical mechanical properties include tensile strength ranging from 60 to 100 MPa, elongation between 25–35%, and low hardness, making it easy to form without cracking. Its lightweight quality and non-magnetic properties further enhance its appeal for specialized applications.
