Aluminium 1350 powder<\/strong> is the spherical powder form of AA1350, the 99.5 percent pure electrical-conductor grade of aluminium, produced by gas atomization in 15-45 um cuts for LPBF and 20-63 um or coarser fractions for cold spray and DED. With electrical conductivity of 61.8 percent IACS, thermal conductivity around 230 W\/m.K, and density of 2.70 g\/cm3, the alloy is the default feedstock when a printed or sprayed component must carry current or move heat rather than bear load. Additive manufacturing and cold spray with 1350 powder produce complex-geometry conductors, bus bars, heat exchangers, and cold-sprayed copper-replacement coatings that wrought processing cannot form, while the alloy’s single-phase, crack-free metallurgy makes it one of the most forgiving aluminium powders to process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is Aluminium 1350 Powder and Its Benefits for Industrial Use<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Aluminium 1350 powder<\/strong> appartient \u00e0 la poudre d'alliage \u00e0 base d'aluminium<\/a> family and replicates the chemistry of AA1350, the grade the electrical industry has used for wire, bus bar, and conductor strip for a century. The 99.5 percent minimum purity is not an arbitrary figure: each tenth of a percent of dissolved impurity costs measurable conductivity, and 1350 represents the practical ceiling of conductivity available at commodity aluminium pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Converting this conductor grade to spherical powder unlocks benefits that sheet, wire, and extrusion cannot deliver:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
