aluminum 3003 vs 6061

Aluminum 3003 contains Manganese as its main alloying element. 3003 Aluminum is an alloy with very fantastic corrosion resistance and moderate strength. It is not heat treatable and develops strengthening from cold working only. 3003 Aluminum Alloy has superior machinability and welding is readily achieved by suggests of traditional welding approaches. Frequently used in chemical equipment, ductwork, and in general sheet metal work. 3003 Aluminum is ordinarily utilized in stampings along with the manufacturing of stress vessels, builder’s hardware, garage doors, awning slats, refrigerator panels, gas lines, gasoline tanks, heat exchangers, drawn and spun components, and storage tanks. All of our 3003 Aluminum Sheet is protected on 1 side with a protective vinyl film.

Aluminum 3003 is a commercially pure aluminum together with the addition of manganese. 3003 is the most widely made use of aluminum alloy as a consequence of it is superb qualities. The addition of manganese increases the strength and 3003 is 20% stronger than 1100 . As with 1100, 3003 has excellent corrosion resistance and workability. It is normally utilised in Chemical gear, Cooking and Kitchen equipment, decorative trim and storage tanks
