Product Description
3003 aluminum strip is an aluminum-manganese alloy known for its excellent corrosion resistance, formability, and weldability. It is a non-heat treatable alloy, which means its strength can only be increased through cold working. This alloy is widely used in various applications due to its moderate strength, good workability, and excellent corrosion resistance.
