Aluminium 3003 Bars and Rods are primarily made up of aluminium (about 98.6%), with manganese (1.0–1.5%) as the key alloying element, along with trace amounts of copper (up to 0.05%) and iron (up to 0.7%). This alloy is known for its excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, and moderate strength. Its mechanical properties include a tensile strength ranging from 140 to 200 MPa, a yield strength of around 125 MPa, and impressive elongation, making it perfect for cold working. While it can’t be heat treated, Aluminium 3003 can be strengthened through cold working methods.
