The aluminum 6061 price per ton is influenced by many factors. Below, we will discuss some common elements that affect the cost.
Specifications of Aluminium 6061 – Different grades and standards can lead to price variations.
Thickness of Aluminium 6061 – Thicker sheets generally cost more due to higher material usage.
Surface Treatment Processes – Techniques such as stretching, powder coating, painting, fluorocarbon coating, perforation, and heat transfer printing all impact the final aluminum 6061 price per ton.
Processing of Aluminum Sheets – Additional treatments like curving, shaping, or roller-leveling increase costs.
Raw Material Costs (Aluminum Ingot Prices) – The base price of aluminum ingots directly affects the aluminium 6061 cost per ton.
Supplier Type – Manufacturers typically offer lower prices than distributors, assuming the same quality.
Production and Procurement Costs – Expenses related to processing and purchasing aluminum ingots.
Brand Influence – Well-known brands may charge a premium.
Logistics and Transportation Fees – Shipping costs vary by distance and method.
Taxes and Duties – Local regulations may add to the final price.
Market fluctuations are frequent, and aluminum ingot prices are highly volatile. Manufacturers’ quotes for the same type and specification of aluminum products can vary significantly. For example, if the ingot price was 2700 usd in March but rose to 2800 usd later, purchasing aluminium 6061 in March could save at least 100 usd per ton. Therefore, if you have demand, buying sooner is advisable.
Since aluminium 6061 comes in various types, processing fees differ even for similar products. Different specifications and manufacturers result in varying costs.
The aluminium 6061 cost per ton (or per kilogram) consists of the current aluminum ingot price plus processing fees. To calculate:
Inquire about the processing fee from an aluminum company.
Check the daily aluminum ingot price on the Changjiang Nonferrous Metals Market website.
Add the two figures for the final aluminum 6061 price per ton.
