3003 aluminum plate is a medium-strength alloy made of 1.20% manganese. It is 20% stronger than 1100 series aluminum, which is why it is a preferred metal and used in various applications in different industries. It has strong corrosion resistance, easy to weld, and has excellent processing performance. It can be used in various applications such as sheet metal parts, spinning, drawing, fuel tank, tapping, and forming. As a 3003 alloy, H14 aluminum plate is easy to form. Decompression or embossing of this tempered alloy usually does not crack or deform the metal. The H14 in the 3003 alloy indicates its tempered state, as well as its partial annealing and strain hardening. This makes this metal easy to shape.

Another type of 3003 aluminum plate is the diamond plate, which consists of the same properties. The diamond plate is not only beautiful, but also non-slip. It is light, but strong. When using the cold bending method, the recommended temperature is 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Applications of this alloy usually include cookware, storage tanks, mailboxes, fan blades, kitchen equipment, construction uses and construction hardware. It is also widely used in truck trailers, beds, floors, decorations and walkways. Compared with 100% in 2011, the cutting performance level of 3003-H14 aluminum alloy is 97%. It can be easily welded using typical welding methods. No heat treatment is required.
