What is recycled aluminum? 3004 aluminum sheet VS 3003 aluminum sheet?

Last Updated: 2022-10-19

3004 aluminum sheet: The 3004 series aluminum sheet also belongs to a series of aluminum-manganese alloys. It has higher strength than 3003, excellent formability, and good corrosion resistance. It requires higher strength of parts than 3003 alloy.

3004 is an aluminum-manganese alloy and is the most widely used anti-rust aluminum. This alloy has low strength (slightly higher than commercially pure aluminum) and cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. Therefore, cold working is used to improve its mechanical properties: high plasticity in annealed state, good plasticity in semi-cold work hardening, low plasticity in cold work hardening, good corrosion resistance, good weldability, and poor machinability. Mainly used for low-load parts that require high plasticity, good weldability, and work in liquid or gaseous media, such as mailboxes, gasoline or lubricating oil tubelines, various liquid containers, etc., made of low-load parts by deep drawing: for rivets wires.

3004 aluminum sheet has good formability, weldability and corrosion resistance. It is used for processing parts and components that require good formability, high corrosion resistance and good weldability, or jobs that require these properties and higher strength than 1XXX series alloys, such as kitchen utensils, food and chemical prodsuct processing And storage devices, tanks and tanks for transporting liquid prodsucts, various pressure vessels and tubes processed with thin sheets, general vessels, heat sinks, cosmetic sheets, copier rolls and ship materials.

3004 aluminum strip is mainly used in the prodsuction and storage of chemical prodsucts, sheet processing parts, building materials, building baffles, cable tubes, sewers, various lighting parts, beverage cans, corrugated boards, building materials, colored aluminum sheets, and lamp holders.

3003 aluminum sheet: 3003 series aluminum sheet is a common prodsuct in the aluminum-manganese alloy series. Due to the manganese alloy element, this prodsuct has excellent anti-rust properties, also known as anti-rust aluminum sheet.

The strength is about 10% higher than 1100, and the formability, weldability and corrosion resistance are all very good. It is used for processing parts and components that require good formability, high corrosion resistance and good weldability, or jobs that require these properties and higher strength than 1XXX series alloys, such as kitchen utensils, food and chemical prodsuct processing And storage devices, tanks and tanks for transporting liquid prodsucts, various pressure vessels and tubes processed with thin sheets, general vessels, heat sinks, cosmetic sheets, copier rolls and ship materials.

The difference between the two is that the scope of application is different. In addition, there are many reasons for the hot sales of recycled aluminum, the most important being

1. The awareness of environmental protection is enhanced, and the improvement of technology makes aluminum can be reused.

2. The cost of primary aluminum is high, and the cost of raw materials has risen sharply due to the epidemic, inflation, and foreign trade resistance.
