3003 Aluminum Sheet
3003 is a typical aluminum-manganese alloy with good formability, corrosion resistance, and weldability. It is commonly used in power battery shells, automotive lightweighting, storage tanks, cooking utensils, food warehouse transport equipment, sheet metal pressure vessels, and piping. Available thicknesses range from 0.2 to 4.5 mm with widths of 100 to 2600 mm and O through H38 tempers. Final uses include power battery shells and mobile phone housings.
3004 Aluminum Sheet
3004 also belongs to the Al-Mn series with higher strength than 3003, and good formability, solubility, and corrosion resistance. It is requested where components require higher strength than 3003. Final uses include heat sinks and liquid crystal backing material.
3005 and 1060
3005 serves PS board bases, signs, lamps, and nameplates. 1060 is pure aluminum with up to 99.6 percent aluminum, with good elongation and tensile strength, fully meeting conventional processing requirements of stamping and stretching. It has high plasticity, corrosion resistance, conductivity, and thermal conductivity but low strength, cannot be enhanced by heat treatment, and has limited machinability. It can be welded and processed by drawing and bending. Final products include ACP base sheet, lamp material, and capacitor shells.
1100 Aluminum Sheet
1100 is industrial pure aluminum with an aluminum content of 99 percent, non-heat-treatable, with high corrosion resistance, conductivity, thermal conductivity, low density, and good plasticity. It has good machining performance and is used for chemical handling and storage equipment, sheet metal products, hardware, hollow spinning and drawing goods, welded assemblies, reflectors, and nameplates. Final products include cooking utensils, building materials, and heat exchangers.
General Specifications
Standard compliance is ASTM B209, with grades across 1xxx to 8xxx series and tempers from O through H38, T3, T4, T6, and T651. Thicknesses from 0.2 to 600 mm, widths from 600 to 2600 mm cold rolled and 1000 to 4300 mm hot rolled, and lengths to 12000 mm are available, with export packing on wooden pallets.
