Prodsuct Description
3003 aluminum alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminum-manganese family (3000 or 3xxx series). It can be cold worked (but not, unlike some other types of aluminum alloys, heat-treated) to prodsuce tempers with a higher strength but a lower ductility. Like most other aluminum-manganese alloys, 3003 is a general-purpose alloy with moderate strength, good workability, and good corrosion resistance. It is commonly rolled and extruded, but typically not forged. As a wrought alloy, it is not used in casting. It is also commonly used in sheet metal applications such as gutters, downspouts, roofing, and siding.

Prodsuct Application
3003 aluminum sheet is commonly used in ships, ships, vehicle materials, automotive and aircraft sheet welds, pressure vessels requiring strict fire protection, cooling devices, television towers, drilling equipment, transportation equipment, missile components, armor, etc.
