Prodsuct Description
3004 aluminum alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminum-manganese family (3000 or 3xxx series). It is similar to the 3003 alloys, except for the addition of approximately 1% magnesium. 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.

Prodsuct Application
The 3004 aluminum sheet has good formability, weldability, and corrosion resistance. Used for processing parts and components that require good formability, high corrosion resistance, and good weldability, or require both these properties and higher strength than 1XXX series alloys, such as kitchen utensils, food, and chemical prodsucts processing and Storage devices, tanks and tanks for transporting liquid prodsucts, various pressure vessels and tubes made of thin sheets, general utensils, heat sinks, cosmetic sheets, photocopier rollers, and ship materials.
