Mechanical Properties
The mechanical properties of 3003 Aluminum Sheet are closely related to its processing state (temper), and different tempers are designed to meet diverse strength and ductility requirements. The following are the key mechanical performance indicators of typical tempers:
Temper
🔵 O State — Full Annealed
Tensile Strength (σb): 90 MPa – 130 MPa
Yield Strength (σ0.2): ≤ 40 MPa
Elongation (δ): ≥ 25%
Best ductility — ideal for deep drawing, bending & stamping
Temper
🟡 H14 State — Strain Hardened + Partial Annealed
Tensile Strength (σb): 130 MPa – 180 MPa
Yield Strength (σ0.2): 110 MPa – 150 MPa
Elongation (δ): ≥ 5%
Balances strength & formability for structural parts
Temper
🔴 H18 State — Full Strain Hardened
Tensile Strength (σb): ≥ 180 MPa
Yield Strength (σ0.2): ≥ 160 MPa
Elongation (δ): ≥ 3%
Highest strength — for load-bearing components

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q
What is 3003 aluminum alloy sheet primarily used for?
3003 aluminum alloy sheet is widely used across the construction industry, automotive and transportation sector, kitchenware and daily necessities manufacturing, industrial equipment fabrication, and the packaging industry. Its excellent corrosion resistance and formability make it one of the most versatile aluminum alloys available.
Q
What tempers are available for 3003 aluminum sheet?
3003 aluminum sheet is available in a wide range of tempers including O (full annealed), H12, H14, H16, H18, H22, H24, H26, and more. Each temper offers a different combination of strength, ductility, and hardness to suit specific application requirements.
Q
What are the available thickness and diameter ranges for 3003 aluminum sheet?
3003 aluminum sheet is available in thicknesses ranging from 0.2 mm to 200 mm, and diameters from 50 mm to 1200 mm. Both CC (Continuous Casting) and DC (Direct Casting) production processes are supported, offering flexibility for various industrial applications.
Q
Which temper of 3003 aluminum is best for deep drawing or stamping?
The O State (Full Annealed) temper is best suited for complex forming processes such as deep drawing, bending, and stamping. It provides the highest ductility with an elongation rate of ≥ 25% and a yield strength of ≤ 40 MPa, allowing the material to be shaped into intricate forms without cracking.
Q
What is the difference between H14 and H18 temper in 3003 aluminum?
H14 (Strain Hardened + Partial Annealed) offers a balanced combination of moderate strength (130–180 MPa tensile) and acceptable formability (elongation ≥ 5%), making it suitable for structural parts. H18 (Full Strain Hardened) provides the highest strength (≥ 180 MPa tensile, ≥ 160 MPa yield) but lower elongation (≥ 3%), making it ideal for load-bearing components that do not require secondary forming.
Q
What is the difference between CC and DC production processes for 3003 aluminum sheet?
CC (Continuous Casting) is a cost-effective process typically used for producing thin gauge aluminum sheets with moderate mechanical properties, suitable for general applications. DC (Direct Casting) produces ingots with a more uniform microstructure, resulting in better mechanical properties and surface quality, making it preferred for high-performance or precision applications.
