Principal Design Features This is an essentially 98% pure aluminum alloy with minor additions for strength. It is not hardenable by heat treatment. Corrosion resistance, formability and welding characteristics are excellent.
Applications Commonly used in the manufacture of residential siding, mobile homes, and rain carrying goods. Is commonly used in sheet metal work.
Machinability Machinability of AL 3105 is fair. Oil lubricants should be used for all machining operations. Machinability of the alloy when in the harder (H) tempers is improved over machining in the annealed (O) condition.
Forming The forming characteristics of the alloy are very good by all conventional processes regardless of temper. Bend radii should be in the one thickness to 2 t range for annealed, H12, H14 and H16 tempers. The H18 temper requires bend radii of 2 to 7 t, depending upon thickness of the material.
Welding Weldability of this alloy is excellent by all commercial techniques. Arc welding is preferred for the best results.
Heat Treatment This alloy does not respond to heat treatment except for annealing during cold working.
Forging Forging, if required, may be done in the range of 950 to 700 F.
Hot Working Hot working may be accomplished at 700 to 400 F.
Cold Working The cold working characteristics of AL 3105 are very good, even in the harder cold worked tempers. Bend radii for sheet up to 1/16″ thick vary from 1/2 to one t for all tempers.
Annealing Annealing from a cold worked condition may be accomplished at 650 F followed by air cooling.
Aging Not applicable to this alloy.
Tempering Not applicable.
Hardening Hardens to the H12, 14, 16, 18 or 25 tempers only by cold working.
Other Physical Props Electrical conductivity 41% of copper.
Other Mechanical Props Typical shear strength values are: H14 15 ksi and H16 17 ksi.

3105 aluminum coil sheet has high plasticity in the annealing state, in the semi cold hardened, the plasticity is still better, it has low plasticity, good weld-ability and poor cutting properties in cold hardening state.

3105-H14 Aluminum vs. 3105-H24 Aluminium

Both 3105-H14 aluminum and 3105-H24 aluminum are variants of the same material. They share alloy composition and many physical properties, but develop different mechanical properties as a result of different processing.

3105-H24 aluminum is 3105 aluminum in the H24 temper. To achieve this temper, the metal is strain hardened, and then partially annealed, to a strength that is roughly halfway between annealed (O) and full-hard (H28).

Comparison of 3105 aluminum with other alloys

Aluminum 3105 metal vs 3003 and 1100 aluminium metal

3105 aluminum has slightly higher strength than 3003 aluminum, others properties are similar to 3003 aluminum alloy, good conductivity, electrical conductivity can be up to 41%.

Aluminum alloy 3105 is essentially a 98% aluminum alloy with minor additions to increase strength over that of alloy 1100 aluminum and 3003.

3105 aluminum alloy vs 6061 aluminium alloy

Aluminum 3105 alloy has good forming characteristics. It is suggested that bend radii should be used in one thickness to 2 t range for annealed H12, H14 and H16 tempers. Bend radii of 2 to 7t should be used for the H18 temper.

6061 aluminum sheet alloy is strong, easily machined, and weldable. Aluminum 6061 T6 alloys are doubled the strength of aluminum 6063 alloys.
