3003 H14 aluminum from GNEE is a widely used, general-purpose alloy recognized for its excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, and reliable weldability. It provides higher strength than pure aluminum, making it well suited for applications such as building products (roofing, siding, panels), HVAC systems, food and chemical equipment, kitchenware, signage, and vehicle components, including truck and trailer roofing and liners. It is especially suitable for processes that involve deep drawing, bending, or stamping.

What Are the Key 3003-H14 Aluminum Sheet Specifications for Your Project

Key Characteristics

Composition: Alloyed with manganese to enhance strength compared with 1000-series aluminum.

Temper (H14): Indicates the material has been work-hardened to a medium (half-hard) condition, achieving a balanced combination of strength and ductility for forming.

Properties: Excellent resistance to corrosion, very good weldability, strong formability, and improved strength relative to pure aluminum.

 

Common Applications

Construction: Roofing sheets, siding, architectural panels, garage doors, and ceiling tiles.

Transportation: Truck and trailer roofing, vehicle parts, fuel tanks, and liners.

Food & Chemical Industry: Storage tanks, material handling systems, and processing equipment.

Household & Appliances: Cookware such as pots and pans, appliance enclosures, and heat sinks.

Signage: Sign blanks and display panels.

HVAC: Radiators, ductwork, and heat exchanger components.

Why Choose 3003 H14 Aluminum

Excellent Formability: Easily formed through bending, stamping, and deep drawing into complex shapes.

Long-Term Durability: Performs well in corrosive environments.

High Versatility: Compatible with a variety of surface finishes, including painting and anodizing.

 

3003 H14 aluminum sheet supplied by GNEE is a widely used aluminum plate material. It belongs to the 3003 series aluminum alloys, with a chemical composition primarily based on aluminum and alloyed with elements such as manganese, magnesium, and silicon, with aluminum accounting for the largest proportion.

 

3003 H14 aluminum sheet offers excellent corrosion resistance, good forming performance, and reliable weldability, while also providing relatively higher strength and hardness compared with pure aluminum. In addition, it has good surface treatment capability and can be painted or anodized to achieve an attractive and durable finish.

 

In terms of applications, 3003 H14 aluminum sheet is mainly used in situations that require high plasticity and good weldability, including kitchenware, chemical product handling and storage equipment, as well as tanks and containers for transporting liquid products. Owing to its outstanding rust resistance, it is also commonly applied in shipbuilding and other environments where corrosion protection is essential.
