3104 Aluminium Sheet

3104 Aluminium Sheet is a commonly used wrought aluminum alloy sheet. Below is the relevant introduction:

Core Characteristics

Excellent processability: 3104 aluminum alloy has outstanding ductility, machinability, and formability. It can adapt to the maximum speed of milling, boring, planing, and other processing of most machine tools. With good deep drawing performance, it can be processed into complex shapes through thinning and stretching.

Strong corrosion resistance: It can effectively resist the erosion of gasoline, neutral inorganic salt solutions, organic acids, food, dilute acids, etc., and also has good corrosion resistance in industrial environments.

Superior anodizing effect: After anodizing treatment, a beautiful and corrosion-resistant oxide film is formed on its surface, which can present various colors and is often used as a color-coated aluminum substrate.

Mechanical Properties

Generally, its tensile strength σb ≥ 275MPa, yield strength σ0.2 ≥ 70MPa, and elongation δ10 can reach 20%, achieving a good balance between strength and toughness.
