Aluminum circle for cookware
Aluminum circle, also known as aluminum disc, aluminum round plate or aluminum round cake, is an aluminum plate with a round shape. Aluminum circles are usually obtained by stamping or cutting aluminum plates and have a wide range of applications. It is especially widely used in kitchen utensils and can make various pots and pans. Kitchenware aluminum discs are round aluminum pieces commonly used in the production of cookware and kitchen utensils. It is characterized by its flat, round shape and uniform thickness.
Kitchenware aluminium circle alloy
Kitchenware aluminum circles are usually made of high-quality aluminum alloys such as 1050, 1060, 1100, 3003, 3004 or 5052. These alloys were chosen because they have excellent formability, corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity. The excellent properties are even more advantageous in the production of kitchenware.

Aluminum circle for cookware performance advantages
Aluminum circles used for cookware have a variety of performance advantages, and have advantages that other alloys cannot match in terms of material properties and use.
Excellent Thermal Conductivity: Aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat, which means it distributes heat quickly and evenly across the cooking surface. This feature allows for even cooking and prevents hot spots that cause food to cook unevenly.
High energy efficiency: Due to the superior thermal conductivity of aluminum discs, cookware made of aluminum rings requires less energy to heat and maintain the desired cooking temperature. Over time, this saves energy and reduces cooking time.
Lightweight: Aluminum discs are lightweight compared to other metals used in cookware, such as stainless steel or cast iron. This makes aluminum cookware easy to handle and operate, especially when transferring food or cleaning.
Aluminum disc pans heat and cool quickly: Aluminum cookware heats up quickly and cools down quickly after being removed from the heat source. This feature allows for precise temperature control during cooking and minimizes the risk of overcooking or burning food.
Aluminum disc pans are more durable: Although aluminum cookware is lightweight, it is durable and resistant to deformation, dents, and scratches under normal cooking conditions.
Kitchenware aluminum circle has good corrosion resistance: Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer on its surface, which has excellent corrosion and rust resistance. This makes aluminum cookware suitable for use with acidic ingredients and dishwasher safe.
Versatility: Aluminum discs can be easily formed into a variety of shapes and sizes to create a variety of cookware products, including pans, frying pans, stockpots and baking sheets. They are also compatible with different cooking methods such as stovetop, oven, and induction cooktops.
