What to watch for when purchasing aluminum disc?

Aluminum discs are very common in our lives. Can seals, non-stick pan bottoms, traffic signs, lampshades, etc. all use aluminum discs. In addition, aluminum discs are used in machinery manufacturing, automobiles and other industrial fields. The first consideration when purchasing aluminum disc is the application. The application is to decide whether to choose hot-rolled or cast-rolled materials. Hot-rolled disc is more suitable for stamping and drawing products due to high elongation rate. The second is whether the specifications of the product meet its own procurement standards. Usually the thickness of the aluminum disc is in the range of 0.3-6.0mm, and the diameter is in the range of 10-3000mm. Because of the difference in equipment and technology, each company can manufacture different specifications. Finally, the delivery time and MOQ of the final aluminum disc also need to be specified before purchasing.
