Many customer do not know how to calculate the aluminum strip price, then they can’t judge whether the price from the aluminum strip supplier is reasonable. Haomei Aluminum, a big aluminum strip manufacturer tells our customers how to calculate.
It is based on the aluminum price of the day plus the processing cost. The processing cost is determined based on the thickness, width, alloy and other aspects of the aluminum strip you need.
The thin flat aluminum strip price is generally higher than the price of aluminum coil or aluminum plate, because the aluminum strip needs to go through a slitting process, and at the same time, it will produce some aluminum scrap. The above reasons will cause the price of aluminum strip to be higher than that of aluminum coil.
The factors that affect the price of aluminum strip are mainly the raw material, the width and the thickness. Different alloys of aluminum strips has different prices. That is same for the different widths and thicknesses.
The thinner the aluminum strip, the higher the aluminum strip price. That is because the thinner aluminum strip requires more slitting knives or even the need tor the secondary slitting. Generally, aluminum strips with a width of less than 100mm are expensive, and aluminum strips with a width of less than 50mm are more expensive.
The aluminum strip price has a big relationship with the aluminum alloys. Generally, the price of 1 series aluminum strip such as 1060 aluminum strip is slightly lower, while the price of 3003 and 5052 aluminum strips will increase, so the price of aluminum strips of different alloys also varies a lot.
The thin flat aluminum strip can generally be processed with a thickness of 0.15-3mm. With a thinner thickness, the length of the aluminum strip will be longer and the price will be higher.
